Welcome to one of Morongo Valley's most extraordinary custom estates—a ranch-style retreat where craftsmanship, function, and desert beauty come together. Positioned between Joshua Tree and Palm Springs, this private compound borders BLM land, offering direct access to hiking, mountain views, and clear star-filled skies. Enter through custom automatic steel gates inspired by the surrounding mountains. The property is enclosed with colored split-face block wall fencing & features mature native landscaping, irrigation, and concrete paver driveways and patios around the home. The custom-built main residence showcases open-beam construction, tongue-and-groove ceilings, corrugated metal accent walls, and rustic finishes throughout. Offering approximately 3,700 square feet, the floor plan includes 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, plus a detached bonus room near the oversized two-car garage—ideal for a guest suite, office, studio, or gym. The main residence has two HVAC systems, one evaporative cooler, an upstairs mini-split, and two tankless water heaters; the detached bonus room has its own window air conditioning unit. The home is wired with an alarm system, security cameras, ethernet, and zoned audio speakers. Designed for entertaining, the outdoor spaces include a fully equipped kitchen with built-in 42” BBQ, pizza oven, sink, refrigerator, warming drawer, burner, and prep space. Two natural gas fire pits create inviting gathering areas, while dual balconies offer sunrise, sunset, and panoramic desert mountain views. One of the property's standout features is the remodeled barn, transformed into a rustic event space. Offering approximately 1,835 square feet, this entertainment hall features reclaimed wood, custom craftsmanship, a saloon, bedroom, bathroom, wood deck, and its own natural gas fire pit—ideal for gatherings, celebrations, or other uses. It has two HVAC systems and a tankless water heater for year-round comfort. Other improvements include a detached 2-bed, 1.5-bath mobile home. The grounds include a mature fruit orchard, grass lawn, covered RV parking with hookups, two cargo containers, a private well, and an adjacent gated parcel providing additional space.
