About this property

OWNER FINANCING AVAILABLE! San Bernardino County operates on a massive scale built for space, isolation, and absolute independence. Positioned in the expansive Mojave Desert near Twentynine Palms just outside the boundary of Joshua Tree National Park this area trades the intense gridlock of the Los Angeles and Inland Empire basins for wide-open horizons, rugged desert backdrops, and a deliberately unhurried pace. It is a region built for those who want a sprawling, secluded foothold with the freedom to operate on their own terms, while remaining within a manageable drive of Southern California's major economic hubs. You are looking at a massive 47.50-acre footprint featuring entirely flat, highly usable terrain. Sitting at a solid desert elevation of 1,768 feet, one of the most valuable assets of this specific tract is its direct paved road access, a significant logistical advantage for a property of this magnitude, ensuring easy entry for heavy equipment, RVs, or daily commuting right from the street level. Adding immense value and convenience to your build, power poles are already situated directly in front of the lot. The property carries highly desirable Rural Living (RL-2.5) zoning. This specific county designation accommodates low-density, spacious desert living, and your 47.50-acre lot massively exceeds the 2.5-acre minimum required by this tier, opening the door to potential subdivision if desired. It establishes a clear, straightforward legal path for a traditional single-family home or a sprawling custom off-grid setup, alongside broad allowances for accessory structures, workshops, equestrian facilities, and vast open space. It serves as an ideal foundation for a permanent desert homestead, a multi-generational family compound, a seasonal recreational basecamp, or an expansive retreat with nearly 50 acres to operate.
