More Insights

Built in 2004 (22 years old).
Condition: Built in 2004, this property is 20 years old and appears to be very well-maintained and move-in ready. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, but the cabinets, countertops, and tile backsplash, along with the bathroom vanities and tile countertops, reflect the original 2004 build style, which is functional but somewhat dated. The terracotta-style tile flooring throughout the main living areas is clean but also consistent with the original build. The presence of paid solar and a well-kept pool and spa are significant positives, indicating good system maintenance and upgrades. While not extensively renovated to modern standards, the home shows minimal wear and tear and no immediate renovation needs, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.

Desert Hot Springs Market Maturity: While an 'emerging market,' Desert Hot Springs may not yet offer the same breadth of high-end amenities, dining, or established community infrastructure as more mature desert cities, which could be a consideration for some buyers.
Ongoing Pool & Spa Maintenance: While a desirable amenity, the private pool and spa require regular maintenance and associated costs (chemicals, cleaning, repairs), which is an additional responsibility for the homeowner.
