Condition Rating
Poor
The property, built in 1958 (66 years old), is explicitly described as needing 'updating and attention' and encourages buyers to 'Bring your tools.' The images confirm this, showing a very dated and worn interior. The kitchen features only a very old, basic electric range and minimal, outdated cabinets. Flooring consists of stained, worn carpet and what appears to be old plywood or cheap laminate. Wall paneling and light fixtures are also severely outdated. While a mini-split AC unit is present, the overall condition of the house suggests it has not undergone major renovations in 30-50+ years and requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to be comfortable and functional.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Expansive Land Parcel: The property boasts an impressive 17.5 acres (762,212 sqft) of Mojave desert, offering unparalleled privacy and vast potential for various uses.
Spectacular Desert & Mountain Views: Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding desert landscape and majestic mountains, a key draw for a tranquil desert retreat.
Development & Expansion Potential: The presence of an existing slab foundation and a second power pole on the property's east side provides a significant head start for future expansion or the addition of another structure.
Exceptional Privacy & Solitude: The extensive acreage ensures a high degree of privacy and a serene environment, ideal for those seeking an escape from urban life.
Attractive Price Point & Value: With a recent price reduction from $199,000 to $150,000, this property presents a compelling investment opportunity or an affordable entry into a unique desert lifestyle.
Cons
Extensive Renovation Required: The description explicitly states the home 'could use some updating and attention,' indicating a need for significant renovation and capital investment to modernize the property.
Modest Home Size: The existing 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home with 1074 sqft is relatively small, which might not suit buyers looking for ample living space without expansion.
Age of Structure: Built in 1958, the home is older, suggesting potential for outdated systems, deferred maintenance, and lower energy efficiency compared to newer constructions.
