Property details
About 8626 La Contenta Rd
Welcome to the back door into Joshua Tree National Park. This is a 1947 single family residence on 5 acres with amazing views. This home is believed to be one of the older homesteads in the area. The owner has had plans drawn up for the existing footprint that were once approved by the city, but have since expired, showing it is possible to repurpose this property. The plans can be given to the new owner upon closing if so desired. The garage has been wired so that you can utilize a generator for power while working on the property if needed. There is an outdoor shower originally styled out of an old water tank with a view. Also has an on-demand water heater. The water is hauled onto the property as there is no public water source in this area of Yucca Valley for the time being. On the plus side you do not have to worry about needing to be connected to the sewer system at this time. Homes in the area use septic systems. It's less than 10min. from the town of Yucca Valley and just about the same to Joshua Tree. The views of the San Gorgonio Mountain range along with the quiet this property have to offer are an outstanding benefit to owning a property in this area.
