Built in 1966, this property shows signs of being an aged but maintained home with some updates. The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, which are positives, but the cabinetry style and light fixture appear dated. The most significant detractor is the worn and dated carpeting visible throughout the living areas and bedrooms, which would require immediate replacement. While the description mentions an 'ensuite bathroom,' the visible portion suggests older fixtures. The presence of mini-split AC units is a modern comfort upgrade. Overall, the home is functional but requires minor cosmetic updates, primarily new flooring and bathroom renovations, to meet current aesthetic standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Strategic Location: The property is perfectly situated minutes from the Marine Corps base, Joshua Tree National Park north entrance, and downtown amenities, appealing to a broad range of buyers including military personnel, tourists, and locals.
Exceptional Views: It boasts 'beautiful forever views' and 'gorgeous desert and mountain views' from the outdoor spaces, significantly enhancing its aesthetic appeal and lifestyle value.
Modernized Kitchen: The kitchen features beautiful granite countertops, upgraded cabinetry, a matching center island, and stainless steel appliances, providing a contemporary and highly functional space.
Flexible Living Spaces: The home offers an open-concept layout, a versatile 3rd bedroom that can serve as a large family room/den with a pellet stove, and an attached pass-through room ideal for an office, catering to diverse living needs.
Inviting Outdoor Entertainment: A fully fenced yard with a spacious covered patio and ample space for a firepit provides excellent opportunities for relaxation, entertaining, and enjoying the desert nights.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1966, the home may have aging systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) that could require significant maintenance, repair, or replacement in the near future, potentially incurring additional costs for a buyer.
Limited Cooling System: Only a mini-split unit is mentioned in one room, suggesting the absence of central air conditioning throughout the entire home, which could be a significant comfort drawback in the hot desert climate of 29 Palms.
Detached Garage: The 2-car garage is detached, which can be less convenient for homeowners compared to an attached garage, particularly for direct access to the home during extreme weather or for security.
