Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1956, this property is a classic 'fixer-upper' described as a diamond in the rough. While the home appears habitable with functional solar power and a detached studio, the interior features—including the tile flooring, basic light fixtures, and overall aesthetic—are dated and require modernization. The property shows signs of age and deferred cosmetic maintenance, but major components appear functional rather than structurally compromised.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 316681, living area = 1895.
Situated on 7.27 acres and backing up to BLM land, the property offers unparalleled privacy and unobstructed panoramic mountain views in a sought-after desert location.
The 640 sq. ft. mid-century block studio with exposed beams and a propane wood stove provides significant value as a creative workspace or potential guest unit.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1895, other record living area = 1255.
Characterized as a 'diamond in the rough,' the 1956 original structure likely requires substantial investment in repairs and modern updates to reach its full market value.
Given the age of the home and the use of propane wood stoves for heating in the studio, buyers may need to modernize the HVAC and utility systems for year-round comfort.
