Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1974, has undergone significant and recent renovations, including updated laminate flooring and fresh paint in the main residence, a 'fully rebuilt' guest house, and $40,000 in recent improvements, plus an owned solar system. The main house kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, black granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, indicative of a recent, high-quality update. One bathroom also boasts a contemporary design with a new vanity, fixtures, and shiplap accent. While these areas are excellent, the second bathroom, though clean, has slightly older light fixtures and countertop style, and the guest house kitchen, while functional, doesn't appear as 'virtually new' as the main kitchen. Overall, the property is move-in ready with well-maintained systems and substantial updates, fitting the 'Good' category for extensive renovations within the last 5-15 years, with some elements being even more recent.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Income & Versatility: The property features a detached guest house generating $25K-$30K annually in Airbnb income, alongside a 2,500 sq ft barn and 6-stall stable offering diverse potential uses like a gym, studio, or creative workspace.
Unparalleled Location & Access: Boasting direct backyard access to Joshua Tree National Park, this 3-acre fully fenced estate provides ultimate privacy with a private electric entry gate and convenient fully paved road access.
Sustainable & Upgraded Infrastructure: An owned solar system powers all buildings, significantly reducing utility costs, complemented by $40,000 in recent improvements including new exterior paint, refreshed landscaping, and resurfaced cement.
Unique Lifestyle Amenities: The inclusion of a 16' meditation yurt and its location in a Designated Dark Sky Zone cater to a unique lifestyle, offering opportunities for quiet reflection and exceptional stargazing.
Multi-Use Estate Potential: With two detached homes on a large estate, this property offers rare flexibility for multi-generational living, continued rental income, or a combination of personal use and investment.

Cons

Age of Main Residence: Built in 1974, the main residence, while having updated laminate flooring and fresh interior paint, may still possess older core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require future upgrades.
Desert Climate Considerations: Located in Yucca Valley, the property is subject to a desert climate, which can include extreme temperatures (very hot summers, occasional winter snowfall), potentially impacting comfort or utility costs.
Extensive Property Maintenance: A 3-acre estate with multiple structures (two homes, barn, stable, yurt) implies significant ongoing maintenance requirements in terms of time, effort, and financial commitment for upkeep.
