Sold – California Off-Grid Cabin For Sale on 5 Acres $55K
OHU50K Notes $55,000 Sold on April 20, 2023 for $48,000
This off-grid cabin for sale is one of many such structures, legacies of a bygone era from 1938 to 1976 when the federal government dispersed land in the high desert under the Small Tract Act. Homesteaders were given a deed to five acres if they built a structure at least 400 square feet in size within three to five years.
With Joshua Tree National Park in one direction and wilderness on the other, some of the shacks were turned into permanent homes, while many more were ravaged by weather and became eyesores. A federal program is in the works to demolish the dilapidated shacks, but although this one has no water or power, the owners have kept the structure in relatively good condition.
