Welcome to 49323 Matzene Drive, a true desert retreat nestled in the serene Morongo Valley. This meticulously maintained home blends midcentury charm with modern upgrades, offering a private oasis on a lush, treed lot. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captivated by the stunning landscape—mature cacti, multiple varieties of fruiting trees, and vibrant foliage surround the property. The fully-fenced front and back yards offer ultimate privacy and security. The home exudes pride of ownership, with recent updates throughout. Fresh paint inside and out, polished concrete floors, new roof, new electric panel, new garage door with side-mounted opener, and new front and French doors all add to the home's aesthetic and functionality. The interior is brimming with craftsmanship: Wood-framed doorways, wood baseboards, and beautiful wood interior doors throughout. The living room features French doors that lead to the back patio. A luxurious stone wood-burning fireplace with a gas insert in the primary bedroom brings elegance and warmth to the space. The dining room boasts Saltillo tile floors, a hand-tiled breakfast bar, and French doors opening to the covered front porch—an inspiring space to sip your morning coffee with the breathtaking views. The home’s two bathrooms are equally charming. The mint green tiled floor in the main bath complements the vintage clawfoot soaking tub, while the two walk-in tiled showers add a modern, spa-like touch. The expansive back patio is perfect for entertaining or relaxing, with a gorgeous glass bottle installation framing an outdoor dining area. A sliding door from the guest bedroom leads to this tranquil space, further extending the home’s seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Whether you’re enjoying the hot tub, tending to the chicken coop, or nurturing your plants in the greenhouse, this property offers endless possibilities for outdoor enjoyment. This home also embraces smart home technology, including keyless entry, a security camera system, and a smart thermostat. Additional features include a shed, ample parking, RV hookups, a natural gas stub for an outdoor BBQ, natural gas appliances, central heating and cooling with mini split in the living room, and a water well! Midcentury architecture, thoughtful craftsmanship, modern upgrades, and stunning desert views come together to create a home that is effortlessly charming. This isn’t just a house—it’s a sanctuary, in one of California's most coveted desert landscapes.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
