The Casey Jones House - a rare architectural landmark set on 65 acres, ready to be restored.

Architectural details include a patio-tucked entrance for a private sense of arrival, thoughtful design that keeps the house naturally cool through summer heat, curved wood-accented ceilings echoing a ship's hull, polished concrete floors, dramatic open living spaces, a custom-designed bathroom and outdoor shower. The home has since sustained a fire damage. The structure and architectural pedigree remain, offering the right buyer a rare opportunity to restore and reimagine this gem. The offering: 65 acres across 3 parcels, sold together: 1) 2373 Arizona Ave - 5 acres with the original 1-bed, 1-bath Casey Jones House (fire-damaged, restorable); 2) 2255 Sunever Rd - 20 acres; 3) 0 La Brisa Dr - 40 acres. With room to rebuild, add a pool, or introduce additional structures, this is a rare chance to resurrect a piece of Joshua Tree architectural history and build real future value alongside it. Whether envisioned as a private couple's escape, a boutique Airbnb, or a desert compound, the Casey Jones House is ready for its second life. Read Less
