Condition Rating
Fair

The property was built in 1987, making it 37 years old. While the home appears well-maintained, the interior finishes, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, are significantly dated. The kitchen features light wood cabinets, tiled countertops, and black appliances (including an older electric range with coil burners), which are not contemporary. The bathrooms also show dated elements such as tiled surrounds for the tub and shower, gold-framed glass shower enclosures, and carpeted floors, which are generally considered undesirable. The overall aesthetic suggests no major renovations have occurred in the last 25-30 years. The property is functional and appears to be in good structural condition, but it requires minor updates to modernize the kitchen and bathrooms to meet current buyer expectations.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Views: The property boasts fabulous mountain and golf course views, specifically overlooking the 14th fairway of the Tom Fazio golf course, complemented by sweeping natural desert panoramas and spectacular sunrise/sunset skies.
Extensive HOA Amenities: Residents benefit from a short five-minute walk to HOA amenities including a lap pool, swimming pool, spa, tennis court, and pickleball, offering a resort-like lifestyle.
Prime Desert Retreat Location: Located adjacent to the 600,000-acre Anza Borrego State Park and within California's only certified Dark Sky Community, it offers unparalleled opportunities for stargazing, hiking, and a tranquil desert experience, while still being close to Borrego Springs town amenities.
Thoughtful Floor Plan for Privacy: The single-level floor plan is designed for maximum privacy, featuring a primary bedroom in one wing and guest quarters in another, ideal for comfortable living and hosting.
Attractive Exterior & Low Maintenance: The property presents a lovely approach with water features, ponds, a detached 2-car garage, and an easy-care landscaped yard, enhancing curb appeal and minimizing upkeep.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $857.0 is substantial and represents a significant ongoing cost that potential buyers must factor into their budget.
Property Age and Potential for Updates: Built in 1987, the property is over 35 years old. While described as well-appointed, there is no explicit mention of recent major system upgrades (e.g., HVAC, roof, plumbing), which could imply future maintenance or renovation expenses.
Niche Market Appeal: Borrego Springs is a remote location, which, while a strength for those seeking a specific desert retreat lifestyle, may limit its appeal to a broader market seeking more urban conveniences, diverse employment, or extensive services.
