36350 Butterfly Peak

Tucked away in the scenic beauty of Mountain Center, this private retreat offers the kind of peace, space, and mountain lifestyle that’s getting harder and harder to find. Set on usable land with beautiful natural surroundings, this property feels private and serene while still being within reach of the Coachella Valley. Sitting up on top of the hill, the home takes full advantage of the views looking out over the landscape below. One of the best parts of the property is the large front porch, made for rocking chairs, morning coffee, quiet conversations, and taking in the fresh mountain air at sunset. Built by the current owner and thoughtfully designed for comfortable everyday living, this rare single-story home sits atop the hill and takes full advantage of the breathtaking views overlooking the beautiful Garner Valley landscape below. A walk-up accessible porch, and extra-wide doorways that can accommodate wheelchair access. Inside, the home feels light, warm, and inviting with large windows, abundant natural light, and an open layout that makes everyday living easy and comfortable. The kitchen offers plenty of cabinetry and workspace while flowing naturally into the main living areas, creating a welcoming space for gathering with family and friends. The bedrooms are generously sized and provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or full-time mountain living. Outside is where the property really shines. The usable land offers endless possibilities with a flat area below that would be perfect for a future barn, workshop, additional garage, or expanded outdoor setup. Whether you have horses, animals, toys, or simply want room to breathe, this property gives you the flexibility to create the lifestyle you want. Located within the Garner Valley community, known as an equestrian haven, residents enjoy approximately 26 miles of private horse riding trails, a community arena, round pen, and a community building that brings neighbors together throughout the year. Garner Valley is loved for its wide-open spaces, four-season climate, riding lifestyle, and strong sense of community. Quiet mornings, star-filled skies, and incredible views make this property feel like a true escape from the busy pace of everyday life. A rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully built home in one of Southern California’s most unique mountain communities.
