About this home
$150,000 PRICE REDUCTION. MOTIVATED SELLER. Rare 40-acre Pioneertown ranch offering privacy, views, direct trail access, and long-term investment potential in one of the High Desert’s most iconic settings. Surrounded by sweeping views of lava buttes, ancient boulders, Big Bear, Mount San Jacinto, and endless desert sky, this property blends working ranch, creative retreat, horse property, and future land opportunity just minutes from Pappy & Harriet’s, Joshua Tree National Park, and the heart of Pioneertown. Currently one year into the subdivision process, the property is being planned as four legal parcels: a 20-acre main compound with the primary residence, detached 2.5-car garage with office, original 1932 homestead cabin, and stables, plus one 6-acre parcel and two 7-acre parcels. Easements are in place, and nearby electric poles offer future utility access, adding meaningful upside for the next owner. The 1,527 sq ft main residence features 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a bonus office, with desert or mountain views from nearly every room. Interior details include Venetian plaster walls, a newly remodeled bathroom with Italian and Moroccan finishes, a chef’s kitchen with butcher block island and KitchenAid appliances, and a wood-burning fireplace with NuTone blowers. A PAID-OFF SOLAR SYSTEM adds value while the property remains connected to the grid. The original 1932 homestead cabin offers an additional 313 sq ft with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, kitchen, soaking tub, and dipping pool, creating a charming guest retreat, studio, or flexible-use space. Outdoor amenities include a cowboy hot tub, airplane-engine pool, horse corral, chicken coop with laying hens, playhouse, bike track, garden room, stables, and direct access to miles of trails for horseback riding, hiking, and off-roading. A rare opportunity to own a private Pioneertown ranch, lifestyle compound, and potential subdividable land investment with unmatched views, character, and room to grow.
