About this home
HISTORIC 1938 ADOBE: This architecturally significant property – featured in Historic Adobe Homes magazine – offers timeless desert appeal. Located within walking distance to the iconic 29 Palms Inn, Kitchen in the Desert and downtown Twentynine Palms, providing a rare opportunity to own an authentic adobe home in one of the town’s most desirable settings. Situated on a .51-acre triangular parcel uniquely positioned so the point of the lot faces directly toward the iconic Oasis of Mara, creating a setting that feels deeply connected to this remarkable natural landmark. Set against the mountains in a prime Twentynine Palms location, the property enjoys beautiful back views of the mature palm groves, with towering palms, mature trees, cactus gardens, and a peaceful breeze from the nearby natural spring pond adding to the sense of a true desert oasis. The home is surrounded by vacant lots on two sides, enhancing the sense of seclusion and making the parcel feel unusually expansive and private. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home spans 1,491 square feet, with a layout that creates an easy connection to the outdoors, as most rooms have direct access outside, blending indoor and outdoor living. Recent improvements include new windows, a new water heater, a new kitchen counter, and new ductless mini-split heating/cooling system for efficient year-round comfort. The home also features a wood-burning fireplace for ambiance, a front porch facing open desert vistas and lush gardens for morning or evening beverages, in addition to an outdoor shower, private backyard, 4-car garage, and a 220V hookup ready for a future hot tub.
