Condition Rating
Poor
The property was built in 1952 and shows no evidence of major renovations in many decades. The kitchen features vintage appliances (including a very old stove), dated wood cabinets, worn countertops, and a mix of old tile and carpet flooring. The bathroom has basic, old tiling and fixtures. Overall, the interior, including light fixtures and general finishes, is extremely dated and requires substantial rehabilitation and modernization to meet current living standards. While not a tear-down, it needs significant investment beyond minor updates.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Desirable Mountain Location: Situated in Idyllwild, the property offers a true 'mountain retreat' experience with convenient access to outdoor activities and a serene natural environment.
Expansive Lot Size: A generous 82,764 sqft lot provides significant privacy, ample outdoor space, and potential for landscaping or future expansion.
Natural Forested Views: Nestled within a forested greenbelt, the property boasts pleasant 'Trees/Woods' views, enhancing its tranquil mountain ambiance and appeal.
Significant Value-Add Potential: The property's explicitly dated and 'poor' condition presents a prime opportunity for a buyer to undertake substantial renovations, customize to their taste, and build significant equity.
Cozy Retreat Appeal: Despite its age, the home's setting and description evoke a charming 'cozy mountain retreat' feel, appealing to buyers seeking a specific lifestyle.
Cons
Extremely Dated Condition: The interior is in 'poor' condition, requiring substantial rehabilitation and modernization, including vintage appliances, worn finishes, and outdated fixtures throughout.
Limited Interior Space: With only 768 sqft, the home is quite small, potentially feeling cramped for a 3-bedroom layout and limiting overall living area functionality.
Single Bathroom: The presence of only one bathroom for a three-bedroom residence can be a significant functional drawback for families or multiple occupants.
