Property Description
Investment Opportunity in the Heart of Twentynine Palms! Welcome to 71995 Samarkand Drive - a duplex property located in an established residential neighborhood offering excellent potential for investors, owner-occupants, vacation rental strategies, or multi-generational living.

The property includes a garage with potential for conversion into an ADU (buyer to verify with City of Twentynine Palms), opening the door for additional rental income, guest quarters, artist studio space, or extended family living. With growing demand for housing near Joshua Tree National Park and the Marine Corps Base, properties with flexible-use possibilities continue to attract attention in the High Desert market.
