Condition: Built in 1991, this property is over 30 years old. While well-maintained with a desirable pool and views, the kitchen features dated tiled countertops, white appliances, and older cabinetry. Bathrooms also show signs of age with tiled counters and traditional fixtures, though the master shower appears to have a more recent, albeit not ultra-modern, tile update. The terracotta-style tile flooring throughout much of the home is also dated. The property is functional and livable but requires significant cosmetic updates to meet contemporary buyer preferences, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.

Pros & Cons

Strong Value Proposition: The listing highlights that the Desert Hot Springs location offers more house for the dollar, suggesting good value for a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with a pool and views in California.
Cons
Property Age and Potential for Updates: Built in 1991, the property is over 30 years old. While well-maintained, it may require updates to systems, fixtures, or finishes to meet contemporary buyer preferences and standards.
Location Specificity: While offering affordability, Desert Hot Springs may not appeal to all buyers seeking the more established amenities, dining, and entertainment options found in neighboring, more affluent Coachella Valley cities, potentially narrowing the buyer pool.
Lack of Defined Community Amenities: The 'Not Applicable-1' subdivision name suggests the property is not part of a planned community with shared amenities or an HOA, which some buyers might prefer for consistent neighborhood upkeep or additional facilities.
