ARCHITECTURALLY BOLD RE-DESIGN: Born from the ashes of an original Midcentury (1964) Homesteader Cabin and rebuilt into a San Bernardino County FULLY PERMITTED (EFFECTIVE AGE NEW) Single Family Residential home (SFR). Going against the grain of current renovation trends, this elegant home will delight you with thoughtful and inventive design choices at every turn, meticulously replacing nearly every aspect of previously existing structure. Just half a mile from the majestic Goat Mountain, the house sits on a gorgeous lot with almost no sign of neighbors. Kitchen cabinets, bookshelves, floating bathroom vanity and storage were custom milled with beautifully wire brushed white oak, while countertops, bathroom vanity and shower bench were all clad with gorgeous gobi limestone. The generously sized bathroom with large walk-in shower was finished with traditional 3 coat plaster, white oak moulding and includes thoughtfully placed wall and shower niches for convenient storage. On the North side of the bedroom, a private fenced in patio custom fabricated by local artisan welder awaits you with expansive views of sun bathed Goat Mountain. The South side of the bedroom is punctuated by a beautiful reading nook with 2 large picture windows, perfectly framing a towering joshua tree in the foreground. You can even see San Jacinto peak cresting the horizon. The exterior of the home is finished with smooth Santa Barbara stucco and the native landscaping includes Octotillo, Palo Verde, Desert Willow as well as many other beautiful desert tolerant species. The entire newly landscaped area has full irrigation with timer system. This project is a labor of love for these designers whose previous house in nearby Flamingo Heights was featured in Dwell. They have spared no expense on this build. Property ideal for primary residence, artist retreat, vacation home or short-term rentals – there are presently no restrictions or cap rates on number of vacation rentals in Landers – a thriving community just north of Joshua Tree with its own world renowned destinations, including Giant Rock, The Integratron, Sands to Snow National Monument along with local shopping and dining options— Giant Rock Meeting Room and acclaimed restaurant La Copine just 10 minutes away.
