Total Seclusion: 40 acres of wilderness for camping, event space/music venue or build a very private ranch. This is a beautiful property set at the base of Copper Mountain. Wake at dawn to see the jackrabbits and listen to the coyotes howl as you fall asleep. Baby quail all in a line may entertain you. The starry nights are glorious here with clear skies most of the time and a lot less light pollution in the desert compared to the cities. Also, the land has no surrounding street lamps! Nearest neighbors (who are all very nice) are about 1 mile away. Bordering the 40 acres are three large empty lots and government land with no structures. We had a well driller come to the property to run some tests and he said the land had a huge aquifer running below it from one corner to the other. Drill a well and get a solar set up and you've got an amazing off grid oasis close to the action of downtown JT and also close to the (better in our opinion) national park entrance in 29 Palms. There IS cell phone service on the property. The soil here is very special. It has a magical mixture of inorganic materials, like crystals and metals, that have eroded down from Copper Mountain, mixed in a matrix of organic material, like grasses that have been made into a fine powder. The result is a natural landscape of orgone generating dirt. You can feel the energy here. There are plenty of dirt roads around the property for casual strolls, ATVing and mountain biking... or take a short climb up the sandy incline at the back of the property and panoramic views of Joshua Tree await. A hikers dream! The sunsets will inspire you. There is a campsite already on the property with a 12 foot (!!) handcrafted solid wood picnic table, handmade stone fire ring, and 24x12 foot wooden deck. 4-wheel drive highly recommended but regular cars, RVs, Airstreams have previously gotten to this property by taking it slow and easy with extra care. #NoPowerLines at our property makes for a real wilderness feel, even though we are very close to nearby points of interest. This property is VERY centrally located for maximum enjoyment of the surrounding areas. Distances from the property by car: Rt. 62: 8 minute drive Downtown Joshua Tree/Saturday Farmers Market: 11 minutes Joshua Tree National Park (Joshua Tree entrance): 19 mins Downtown Twentynine Palms: 18 mins Joshua Tree National Park (Twentynine Palms entrance): 23 mins Indian Cove: 16 mins PioneerTown: 29 mins We LOVE this magical property that we bought to bring our three children closer to nature... but life has taken us to the east coast so we aren't able to visit it regularly like we used to when we lived in the LA area. This is a very special and rare property type in that it's central to the national park and downtown, yet remains secluded with immediate access to MOUNTAIN hiking in the backyard (not just hikes around a neighborhood). Also many wilderness properties have no cell phone service or spotty service at best (no bueno). We visited 44 properties in Joshua Tree before buying this one for all the reasons mentioned above but most of all for its phenomenal natural beauty. Will you enjoy its splendor next? We hope so! ~Amanda and Mario Please note: REAL ESTATE AGENTS/BROKERS/PEOPLE SELLING SERVICES/RANDOM ESCROW COMPANIES/LISTING WEBSITES/SOLICITORS OF ANY KIND ***DO NOT*** CONTACT US.
