Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1957, is well-maintained but shows significant signs of age and outdated features. The kitchen features older wood cabinets, dated laminate countertops, older white appliances, and tile flooring, suggesting it has not been extensively renovated in the last 30-50 years. The bathroom appears to have been updated more recently, likely 15-30 years ago, with a white vanity and speckled countertop, but still presents an outdated style. Other areas exhibit popcorn ceilings, older light fixtures, and a mix of flooring (carpet, cork-like, tile), along with wall-mounted AC units, indicating functional but aged systems. While the home is described as 'well kept' and appears livable, it requires minor updates to meet current aesthetic and functional standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria of being aged but maintained with functional but outdated components.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 19166, living area = 1063.
Investment & First-Time Buyer Opportunity: The property is offered at an 'amazing price' and explicitly highlighted as a fantastic opportunity for first-time homebuyers or as an investment property.
Prime Joshua Tree Location: Located in the scenic Hidden Rivers area, the home is conveniently situated minutes from Joshua Tree National Park, local restaurants, shops, the Farmers Market, and an elementary school.
Expansive Outdoor Living & Amenities: Features a huge, fully fenced yard with an inviting covered patio, picnic area, and an above-ground pool, perfect for relaxation and entertaining in the desert climate.
Versatile Detached Garage & ADU Potential: A substantial 572 sq. ft detached garage provides ample space for parking, storage, or a workshop, with additional outdoor space suitable for RVs, boats, ATVs, or even future ADU construction.
Scenic Views & Natural Light: The home offers 'stunning Desert views' and is filled with abundant natural light through its many large windows, enhancing the living experience.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =19166, other record lot size in square feet = 19425.
Older Construction & Potential Updates: Built in 1957, while described as 'well kept,' the property's age may imply a need for updates to systems or aesthetics to meet modern buyer preferences.
Limited Bedroom/Bathroom Count: With only 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the home's capacity and layout may be restrictive for larger families or those desiring more extensive private living spaces.
Lack of Explicit Cooling System: The description mentions a fireplace for 'chilly desert nights' but does not specify the presence of an air conditioning system, which is a significant consideration for comfort during hot Joshua Tree summers.
