Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 2000, is 24 years old. The listing explicitly states that the manufactured home 'needs renovations,' although its 'bones are good.' Images confirm that the kitchen features dated white appliances, laminate countertops, and basic wood cabinets, while the bathrooms have older vanities and fixtures. The flooring throughout, including carpets and sheet vinyl, appears original and shows signs of age and wear. While functional, the interior components are outdated and require updates to meet current standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria of requiring minor updates or repairs and showing signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Vast & Usable Acreage: The property boasts an expansive 160 acres across 3 assessor parcel numbers, featuring multiple flat, cleared valleys, providing significant potential for diverse agricultural, ranching, or homesteading endeavors.
Private Water Source: A private water well is on-site, ensuring a self-sufficient and reliable water supply for both residential and extensive agricultural needs, a critical asset for rural properties.
Agricultural Preserve Benefits: Part of an agricultural preserve, the property's title allows for a wide range of agricultural uses including crops, fruit trees, poultry, horses, and livestock, protecting its rural character and offering income potential.
Owner Financing Available: The owner is willing to finance the sale with a reasonable down payment, significantly broadening the pool of potential buyers and making this large investment more accessible.
Existing Infrastructure & Privacy: Includes multiple outbuildings and horse shelters, providing a foundation for ranching operations, complemented by the natural privacy offered by surrounding hills for a serene country lifestyle.

Cons

Renovation Required for Main Residence: The existing 2280 square foot manufactured home, while having 'good bones,' explicitly 'needs renovations,' indicating immediate and potentially substantial capital expenditure for modernization or restoration.
Remote Location: Situated in Ranchita, the property offers a serene country life but is relatively remote, requiring travel to Julian or Borrego Springs for dining and shopping, which may not appeal to all buyers seeking urban conveniences.
Limited-Term Owner Financing: While owner financing is offered, it is explicitly 'short term - 2 years,' which might present a challenge for buyers needing a longer period to secure traditional financing or manage their investment.
