Welcome to Morongo Valley, the Hi Desert's best kept secret! Perfectly nestled 2 miles inside the spectacular Big Morongo Canyon and up a long and winding private solar-lit driveway on 5 acres and perched on its own hill sits "The Villa," an artistic, fully furnished, mid-century desert retreat. Sellers have thoughtfully given this home a complete cosmetic overhaul, redesigning the property from top to bottom, including electrical and plumbing, interior and exterior walls, landscaping, to name a few--just take a look at the remodel list! An abundance of windows and sliding glass doors invite natural light to pour in, as well as provide panoramic mountain vistas throughout the home. The open floor plan allows you to effortlessly pass from the main living area into the bonus sunroom, bedroom, bathroom, and library! An inviting 600 sq. ft. solar string-lit covered veranda allows for majestic mountain views by day, and city lights by night, and an incredible 1500 sq. ft. warehouse provides plenty of room for your vehicles, an RV, storage and all of your desert off-roading toys. Solar-lit trails will guide you to the gazebo and fire pit, overlooking a flowing stream, allowing for a pristine connection to nature and serenity and a breathtaking view of Big Morongo Canyon. Enjoy the eclectic shopping and dining destinations of Morongo Valley, which is ideally located between two iconic desert destinations--Palm Springs and Joshua Tree National Park. The Villa is perfect for a second home, an investment property, or your full-time desert mountain retreat. Welcome home :O)
