21 Acres, (APN: 0634-071-05) GPS: 34.241884, -116.089242 This lot is 660 ft south of 29 Palms Marine Base in Twentynine Palms CA. This property offers an excellent opportunity for developers, situated along a main paved road leading directly to Marine Base housing. Electricity is conveniently available along Morongo Road, located just across the street. While the property lies outside the Twentynine Palms Water District, requiring a water well, this adds potential for self-sufficient development in a rapidly growing area. Zoned as Rural Living with a 5-acre minimum by the County, the property allows for rural residential and incidental agricultural uses, with subdivision potential for multiple parcels. Each 5-acre parcel would permit one primary unit with additional accessory dwellings (ADU's), as outlined by county regulations. The land benefits from being outside the 100-, 200-, and 500-year floodplains, with no blue-line washes or Joshua trees present, streamlining development possibilities. This property offers a prime canvas for innovative residential projects in a high-demand location. The owner has entered into a Memorandum of Option for a Land Lease in 2023, which expires in 2028. The lease spans 29 years and 5 months, with a 5-year extension option. Upon development, the owner receives a payment of $2,500. Once construction begins, the owner is paid $10,000 per MW acre, with annual payments of $2,500 per acre (+2% compounded annually) during the operating term. According to the solar company, this lease can either be transferred to a new buyer or canceled if the buyer chooses not to retain the Option. The lease is recorded (DOC# 2023-0214608). Prospective buyers should consult with their attorney or legal advisor for a detailed review of the Option. The property is located about 7.5 miles northwest of downtown Twentynine Palms, CA, a vibrant desert city known for its proximity to Joshua Tree National Park and the 29 Palms Marine Base. The area's connection to outdoor recreation and the military base creates strong demand for vacation rentals, eco-friendly housing, and residential properties for military families. With its unique desert charm and opportunities for growth, Twentynine Palms presents an ideal location for developers and home builders to create diverse residential options. This property does not yet have an address. A Buyer should verify boundaries, zoning and utilities, ensuring every aspect aligns with their vision for the property.
