Welcome to 7284 Saddleback Rd, a rustic-modern bohemian oasis tucked away on a corner lot in Joshua Tree's coveted Friendly Hills neighborhood. Built in 1967 and thoughtfully reimagined, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home--including a serene primary suite--blends midcentury character with modern comfort. Every bedroom opens to the outdoors: two onto private courtyards and one to the rear patio. The light-filled great room features reclaimed wood accents, high ceilings, and a striking rock fireplace, creating an inviting open space that connects the living room, chef's kitchen, and dining area--perfect for gathering and entertaining. Step outside to 1.25 acres of desert beauty with panoramic views, where a cowboy tub, hot tub, firepit, hammocks, swingset, and multiple lounging areas invite relaxation under the sun or stars. An attached two-car garage offers storage or potential, along with a charming detached cottage, currently used as a bunkhouse with its own deck and power. Just minutes from Crossroads Cafe, The Dez, the weekly farmer's market, and the Joshua Tree National Park entrance, this home captures the essence of desert living--offered fully furnished, with an EV charging outlet, ready for your next adventure.
