Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1956, this property shows significant age and a lack of major renovations. The bathroom is severely outdated with old fixtures and finishes. The visible heating/cooling system is an older wall-mounted unit, and there's a noticeable ceiling stain in the hallway, indicating potential deferred maintenance. While described as 'comfortable' and functional, it requires substantial rehabilitation and updates to meet modern living standards and address its overall dated condition.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Strategic Location: The property boasts a desirable location near local parks, schools, and the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park, enhancing its appeal for both residents and potential vacation renters.
Essential Utilities: Equipped with Natural Gas and City Water, the home offers modern conveniences and reliable utility services, which are significant advantages in the area.
Outdoor Amenities: Features a large, fenced yard with mature trees and local vegetation, providing privacy and an appealing outdoor living space, complemented by covered parking and additional storage.
Functional Cooling System: The presence of working coolers and fans ensures immediate comfort in the desert climate, a crucial feature for livability without requiring new installation.
Investment Potential: Marketed as a 'great first home or investment property,' its competitive price point and location make it attractive for entry-level buyers or those seeking rental income.
Cons
Limited Bathroom Count: With only one bathroom for three bedrooms, the property may present practical challenges for families or multiple occupants, potentially limiting its broader market appeal.
Property Age: Built in 1956, the home is older, which could imply dated systems, potential for deferred maintenance, or the need for significant upgrades to meet contemporary standards and buyer expectations.
Estimated Overpricing: The current list price of $236,000 is notably higher than the property's estimated value of $204,026.635, suggesting it may be overpriced relative to current market analytics.
