Perched atop an elevated bluff in Western Hills Estates, this 2-bedroom (plus bonus 3rd bedroom) 2.5-bath Mid-Century Modern captures sweeping views from the hills of Joshua Tree National Park to the southeast to San Jacinto Mountain to the southwest. The elevated setting, expansive skies, and changing desert light give the home a remarkable sense of place, with a private hot tub and exceptional stargazing overlooking the city lights below. The home includes a garage suite/lounge that functions as a third bedroom, along with an active Short-Term Rental permit through the Town of Yucca Valley, transferable to the new owner subject to buyer verification. Previously operated as a successful Airbnb, the property was recently redesigned and upgraded by a Los Angeles/Joshua Tree-based design/build team with experience owning and operating multiple short-term rentals. Classic Mid-Century character defines the interiors, with concrete floors, an open floor plan, and dramatic high-beamed ceilings anchoring the living room. The modern kitchen features a generous island and large double refrigerator. The primary suite includes a spacious en-suite bath with double vanity, walk-in shower, and soaking tub. The guest bath also features a walk-in shower. Accessed by a shared private driveway from a quiet cul-de-sac, the home is minutes from downtown Yucca Valley, approximately 20 minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, 15 minutes from Pioneertown, and 40 minutes from Palm Springs International Airport. A compelling opportunity for an STR investor seeking a design-forward desert rental, or an MCM enthusiast looking for a distinctive second home with exceptional views, stargazing, and proximity to the best of the High Desert.
