About this home
Own a Once-in-a-Century Opportunity in the Santa Rosa & San Jacinto Mountains Discover a rare chance to own a remarkable piece of California history — approximately 280 acres of pristine, undeveloped land that hasn’t been on the market in over 100 years. This incredible property shares a boundary with the San Bernardino National Forest and is surrounded by natural beauty, including nearby campgrounds, hiking and horse trails, and even a natural spring with its own faucet — a rare and valuable feature. With breathtaking forest views perfect for picturesque photoshoots, the setting offers endless possibilities. Nestled within the awe-inspiring Santa Rosa & San Jacinto Mountains National Monument, this expansive high-desert parcel offers unmatched panoramic vistas, dramatic topography, and total privacy. It’s an ideal site for a secluded estate, off-grid retreat, eco-lodge, or conservation investment. Accessible via Forest Route 7S02, the property is perfectly situated near some of Southern California’s most desirable mountain and desert destinations. Just 15 minutes away is the charming village of Idyllwild, known for its pine-lined streets, vibrant music scene, local cafés, galleries, and seasonal festivals. A 25- to 30-minute drive leads to Palm Desert, where you’ll find luxury shopping along El Paseo, championship golf, fine dining, and resort amenities. Agua Caliente Casino is also nearby, and Palm Springs International Airport is just an hour away for easy access. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the proximity to scenic byways along Highways 74 and 243, the iconic Pacific Crest Trail, Lake Hemet’s fishing and camping, and an endless network of trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Surrounded by federally protected land and natural beauty in every direction, this one-of-a-kind property offers the rare combination of seclusion, scale, and proximity to key amenities. A blank canvas in one of California’s most stunning and untouched landscapes — ready for your vision....
