Skyborne is one of the fastest growing communities in Desert Hot Springs, and once you visit you will see why! This is a family-friendly gated community with low HOAs and beautiful common areas. This community offers a mix of part-time and full-time residents who enjoy the peaceful serenity you get once inside the gates, as well as the clubhouse and resort-style pool and spa. This home has 3 bedrooms plus a den, and one of the bedrooms is a detached casita, giving your guests the ultimate privacy when they visit. If you work from home, the casita is also a way to get some quiet and privacy for your home office, and a separation from the main house. There is also a dedicated den in addition to the 3 bedrooms, offering a great spot for a media room or a home office. The living room and kitchen offer a wonderful large space to entertain, with plenty of counter and cabinet space. Outside you have two separate areas - a protected front courtyard that is private and shielded from the afternoon sun or wind, and a backyard that opens up to the wash, allowing for beautiful views and distance from your neighbors. The north-facing layout of the backyard means you can leave your window coverings open all year, even during the hot summer months, and enjoy the natural light. This house also has solar already installed, so you can come enjoy the health and wellness the desert offers, while also harnessing the sunlight to power your home!

Condition Rating
Good

The property was built in 2006, making it 18 years old, which aligns with the 'Good' condition criteria for properties built within 10 to 20 years. The images indicate a well-maintained home that is move-in ready. The kitchen features light wood cabinetry, dark granite countertops, and a mix of black and stainless steel appliances (the refrigerator appears to be a newer stainless steel model, while others are black). The kitchen flooring is a light-colored linoleum or vinyl tile, consistent with the build era. Bathrooms appear clean and functional with standard fixtures and finishes, including a glass-enclosed shower. While the overall style of the kitchen and bathrooms reflects the original construction and has not been extensively updated to modern trends, all visible components are in good working order with minimal wear and tear. The presence of solar panels is a significant positive for system functionality and efficiency.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Community Amenities & Lifestyle: Located in Skyborne, a family-friendly gated community offering low HOAs, a clubhouse, and a resort-style pool and spa, promoting a desirable and serene lifestyle.
Flexible Living Spaces: Features a detached casita for ultimate guest privacy or a dedicated home office, complemented by an additional den perfect for a media room or secondary office.
Energy Efficiency: Equipped with an already installed solar power system, significantly reducing utility costs and promoting sustainable living.
Outdoor Living & Views: Boasts a private, protected front courtyard and a north-facing backyard opening to a wash, providing beautiful views, natural light, and enhanced privacy from neighbors.
Scenic Views: Offers picturesque mountain and rock views, contributing to the property's aesthetic appeal and connection to the natural desert landscape.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Geographic Location Appeal: Situated in Desert Hot Springs, which, despite being a growing community, may have a more specific market appeal compared to other desert cities, potentially narrowing the buyer pool.
Potential for Dated Interiors: Built in 2006, the property's interior finishes, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, may not reflect the latest modern trends and could require future updates or renovations.
School Proximity: The closest public schools (elementary, middle, and high) are located over 3 miles away, which might be a consideration for families prioritizing walking distance or very short commutes to educational facilities.
