Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Modern Renovations: The property has undergone significant recent upgrades including a new roof with a 5-year warranty, new double-pane windows, updated kitchen with new cabinets and granite, fresh interior paint, and new porcelain tile and carpet flooring throughout, making the 1969-built home feel 'like new'.
Prime Golf Course Location: Situated directly behind the 4th hole tee of a public 9/18 golf course with two lakes, offering desirable recreational access, scenic views, and a unique lifestyle.
Robust Climate Control & Efficiency: Equipped with great air conditioning, an additional evaporative cooler, and ceiling fans throughout, providing comprehensive climate control essential for desert living, complemented by new double-pane windows and a solar sprinkler system.
Exceptional Value & Inclusions: Described as 'affordable like new,' the property includes major appliances (like new range/oven, two full-size refrigerators, washer, and dryer) and may qualify for a USDA mortgage, enhancing its financial appeal.
No HOA & Convenient Access: The absence of HOA fees provides financial freedom, while its location right off Interstate 10 offers easy commutes to larger towns like Indio or Blythe, and all public utilities are underground.

Cons

Remote Desert Location: Located in Desert Center, a very small and remote community, which may limit immediate access to diverse services, shopping, dining, and entertainment options, requiring travel to larger towns.
Age of Original Structure: Despite extensive renovations, the home's original construction year of 1969 means underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical beyond what's visible) could still be original or require future attention.
Limited Local Infrastructure: While near a fire department, library, and public cooling center, the immediate area likely lacks a wide array of essential services and amenities typically found in more developed residential areas.
