Welcome to Rancho Morongo, a rustic-modern homestead situated on 2.5 pristine acres in Morongo Valley--just 20 minutes from Joshua Tree or Palm Springs, and under two hours from Los Angeles. This beautifully restored 1954 ranch-style home was thoughtfully renovated in 2019 and now operates as a successful 5-star vacation rental. The property features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an airy open-concept great room, which boasts a chef's kitchen, custom cabinetry, dining banquette, and a cozy living area with a wood-burning fireplace. A second expansive family room offers a wet bar, library nook, and another wood burning stove, perfect for game nights and entertaining. The massive primary bedroom has direct access to a fully fenced side yard, and the large hall bathroom contains a walk-in shower, as well as a soaking tub with mountain views. A beautiful bunk room, additional guest room and 3/4 bath round out the interior. Outdoors, enjoy total privacy with 360 views, a cowboy plunge-pool, an above-ground hot tub, multiple lounge areas, a vintage trailer, and flourishing desert gardens with agave, prickly pear, palo verde, yucca, ocotillo, and Joshua trees. The home is newly connected to the grid, although mostly powered by owned solar panels, and will be sold fully furnished and stocked--every piece carefully curated to match the serene desert aesthetic.
