This Hidden Canyon Retreat is truly one-of-a-kind and offers the best in privacy and seclusion! The security gated entrance opens on a private, meandering road to this 2-bedroom, 1 bath house nestled in its own private canyon with beautiful views of rock formations and natural vegetation. The property is surrounded entirely by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land, so the 5-acre parcel feels a hundred acres. A private mountain with hiking trail stops at a bench at the top overlooking the entire valley. The house with quaint kitchen and spacious living area was recently partially redone re-configuring the original single bedroom and adding a second bedroom with large windows and a laundry room. Mini splits have been added to both bedrooms and the living room for AC and heat along with the original wood stove in the living room. Don't miss the insulated, easy access attic that could be used as an additional sleeping area, playroom or studio. A newer detached double garage with carport is set with plumbing and electrical. Everyone will love the expansive playground with swings, slide, monkey bars and climbing structure too! This get-a-way is located just minutes from the Johnson Valley OHV recreation area, and the annual King of the Hammers. *The house may be permitted as a rec cabin by the county. Rec cabin status can change the requirements for future permitting. The detached garage and an addition at the house are unpermitted. Buyers and agents please discuss the ramifications of this information. Buyer and agent to do their due diligence on current permits and future permitted. Seller may carry! Call for more information.
