Four contiguous parcels totaling 4.8 acres in North Joshua Tree are being sold together, presenting a rare chance to step into a project with much of the groundwork already complete. Each lot is about 1.2 acres and situated on a lightly traveled stretch of Border Avenue with wide desert views. Architectural plans received County approval in 2024 and only require reinstatement for 2025, giving buyers a head start on development. Geological and percolation reports have been completed, public water is available, one meter is installed and paid, and Will-Serve letters are secured for the remaining three meters.
This offering goes beyond convenience, it’s located in one of Southern California’s most historically significant and culturally rich destinations. Joshua Tree has long drawn artists, musicians, and seekers of desert beauty, from the days of Gram Parsons at the Joshua Tree Inn to today’s thriving art and music scene. The area’s proximity to Joshua Tree National Park, a landmark visited by millions each year, adds lasting value and demand for housing. For builders, investors, or developers, this property provides the opportunity to create four homes in a setting that blends timeless desert character with modern demand.
