Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1973, this property has undergone significant recent upgrades that elevate its condition to 'Good'. The description highlights 'modern upgrades' including double-paned vinyl windows, new woodgrain vinyl flooring, and new carpet in bedrooms. The kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances, though the cabinets appear to be painted originals and countertops are laminate. Both bathrooms have been updated, with the guest bath offering a newer vanity with granite and tile, and the primary bath being 'remodeled' with quartz countertops and a walk-in shower. While some elements like the popcorn ceilings and the general style of the kitchen cabinets reflect its age, the extensive recent renovations to key areas like flooring, windows, and bathrooms, along with modern appliances and system upgrades (solar, water softener), make it move-in ready with no immediate renovation required. The property is well-maintained and functional, aligning with the 'Good' criteria for a property extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.

Extensive Modern Upgrades: Features significant recent upgrades including double-paned vinyl windows, woodgrain vinyl flooring, new bedroom carpets, and remodeled bathrooms with granite and quartz countertops, enhancing comfort and aesthetic appeal.
Energy Efficiency & Water Systems: Includes valuable additions such as an assumable solar system, a whole-house water softener, and a reverse osmosis system, contributing to lower utility costs and improved water quality.
Flexible Outdoor Space & RV/Boat Parking: The low-maintenance backyard with a gazebo provides a relaxing outdoor retreat, while the side yard offers practical flexible use for RV/boat parking or potential expansion of the main yard.
Top-Rated School District Access: Located within the highly regarded Yucaipa-Calimesa Unified School District, with access to top-rated schools and nearby charter options, making it attractive for families.

Cons

Lack of Mentioned Central Cooling System: The property description highlights numerous upgrades but does not mention a central air conditioning system, which could be a significant drawback during Yucaipa's hot summer months.
Age of Core Structure: Built in 1973, while many cosmetic and some functional upgrades have been made, the underlying infrastructure (e.g., original plumbing, electrical, or roof) may still be older and could require future maintenance or replacement.
Recent Price Reduction Trend: The property has undergone multiple price reductions since its initial listing, which may suggest it was initially overpriced or is experiencing challenges in attracting buyers at its current perceived market value.
