Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1990, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready. The kitchen features updated cabinets and countertops, but the island cooktop and some light fixtures appear dated. Bathrooms show signs of older updates with dated light fixtures and tile work, suggesting renovations likely occurred 15-20 years ago rather than recently. While functional, the home's style reflects its age and previous updates, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Extensive Community Amenities: The Desert Princess community offers an impressive array of amenities, including an affordable 27-hole PGA Championship golf course with no tee-time lotteries or initiation fees, an on-site restaurant, a wellness spa, and 34 community pools and spas, providing a resort-like living experience.
Updated Interior & Functional Layout: The home features an updated kitchen with a center island, updated cabinets and countertops, and all-tile flooring throughout. The desirable layout includes three en-suite bedrooms, making it ideal for families or guests.
Desirable Views & Outdoor Space: The property boasts stunning West mountain views and a back patio with a newer pergola, creating an inviting outdoor space perfect for relaxation and entertaining.
Strategic Location: Located in a quiet community, the property offers tranquility while being just minutes away from the vibrant attractions of Palm Springs, including restaurants, shopping, casinos, the international airport, and cultural venues.
Recent Price Reduction: The property has recently been reduced in price from $495,000 to $475,000, indicating a motivated seller and potentially offering a more attractive value proposition to buyers.

Cons

Limited Land Lease Term: The property is subject to a land lease that expires in 2044, which is a relatively short remaining term. This can impact financing options, future appreciation, and resale value as the lease approaches its end.
High Monthly Costs: Buyers will incur significant ongoing monthly expenses due to the high association fee of $954, in addition to a monthly ground rent of $201.82, totaling over $1,150 per month before utilities and property taxes.
Age of Property: Built in 1990, the property is over 30 years old. While the interior has been updated, potential buyers may consider the age of the overall structure and major systems, which could require future maintenance or upgrades.
