About this home

What an amazing location! Walk to the world-famous La Copine from this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath home on 2.5 acres of open desert in Flamingo Heights. Want views? Check. Want income? Check. Currently operating as a high-performing short-term rental, the 1,086-square-foot home works equally well as an investment or a personal getaway. Flamingo Heights is one of the most exciting areas of the Hi-Desert. This home has high ceilings and abundant natural light that fills an open layout that pairs modern design with a touch of rustic charm. The kitchen comes equipped with an electric stove, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator. Both bedrooms have a king bed, a desk for remote work, a mini split, and a slider that opens directly to the outdoors. An indoor laundry room, tankless water heater, and Starlink internet round out the comforts. Outside, cool off in the above-ground pool, soak in the spa, then gather at the fire pit while dinner comes off the BBQ grill. After dark, the telescope puts the clear desert sky within reach. Mature mulberry trees shade the fenced yard, which has made the home a welcome stop for guests' pets. The detached 2-car garage is set up as a game room with pool and ping pong tables, and the record player and vinyl collection set the mood indoors. The home is fully electric, with leased solar making the utility bill reasonable. Pioneertown and the King of the Hammers off-road event in Johnson Valley are within easy reach. Twenty minutes to the entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, and thirty minutes to Palm Springs. Property grossed $72,844 in STR income in 2025 and $53,245 YTD at the end of August this year. Guests love it. Come see something special today!
