Escape the grid entirely at this 40-acre Desert Hideaway. This ruggedly beautiful 40-acre parcel, which adjoins thousands of acres of government land, is tucked inside a natural amphitheater featuring varied topography in the scenic region south of Barstow near Highway 247. The RC (Resource Conservation) zoning on this 40-acre property keeps it rural, allowing for one single-family home (with a possible accessory dwelling unit), low-key outdoor recreational activities, keeping animals, and some farming, camping, horse riding, or renewable energy options with the right county permits. The property has undeveloped access, although it has previously been accessed from existing dirt trails. A 4WD or ORV will be needed here to reach your personal fortress, overlanding basecamp, or dark skies stargazing retreat. A unique opportunity! *Boundary depictions are approximate and for illustrative purposes only. Boundary markers provided by the owner are approximate and not a substitute for a survey. Buyer to make their own independent investigations regarding Zoning and General Plan Designations, Environmental and Hazard Zones, Access and Development costs, Availability and Costs of Utilities.
