Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1967, this property is 57 years old and shows no evidence of significant renovations in decades. The kitchen and bathrooms are severely outdated, featuring original or very old cabinets, countertops, and fixtures, requiring complete renovation. Crucially, the living room, hallway, and bedrooms are missing flooring, rendering the property unlivable in its current state and necessitating substantial rehabilitation and updates throughout.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Customization Opportunity: The absence of flooring in the living room, hallway, and bedrooms provides a blank canvas, allowing buyers to personalize the home's aesthetic to their exact taste and preferences from day one.
Generous Lot Size: Sitting on a spacious 9,000 sq ft lot, the property offers ample outdoor space for potential expansion, landscaping projects, gardening, or creating various outdoor living areas.
Quiet Cul-de-sac Location: Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home benefits from reduced traffic, enhanced privacy, and a potentially safer environment, which is appealing for families or those seeking tranquility.
Spacious Living Area: The home features a spacious living room, providing a comfortable and versatile area for relaxation, entertaining guests, or family gatherings.
Strong Local Schools: The property is located near highly-rated schools, including Skyline North Elementary (Rating 5) and Barstow High School (Rating 4), making it attractive for families with school-aged children.
Cons
Significant Renovation Required: The explicit mention of 'no flooring' in key living areas (living room, hallway, bedrooms) indicates a substantial immediate investment and effort required for basic liveability and customization.
Age of Property & Potential Updates: Built in 1967, the home is over 50 years old, suggesting that major systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and other components may be original or outdated, potentially requiring costly upgrades beyond just cosmetic finishes.
Potential Overpricing: The listing price of $209,000 is significantly higher than the estimated property value of $122,989.76, indicating a potential overvaluation that could deter buyers and prolong market time.
