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. Originally built in 1954 and thoughtfully renovated in 2019, this Dwell featured ranch is truly what desert dreams are made of. Inside the layout is airy and welcoming, with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an open-concept great room anchored by a chef's kitchen, custom cabinetry, dining banquette, and a cozy living area with a wood-burning fireplace. A second family room offers a wet bar and library nook, perfect for game nights or hosting friends. The large hall bathroom contains a walk-in shower, as well as a soaking tub with mountain views, while the expansive primary bedroom has direct access to a fully-fenced side yard with an additional outdoor bathtub. A beautiful custom-built bunk room, additional guest room and 3/4 bath round out the interior. Outside, enjoy complete privacy with 360 views, 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 will be sold fully furnished and stocked, with every detail carefully curated to complement its serene desert setting.
