More Insights
Built in 1938 (88 years old).
Condition: Built in 1938, the property has received recent cosmetic updates like new laminate flooring and fresh paint, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen features very dated dark wood cabinets and tile countertops, and the bathroom retains original-era pink wall tiles, despite having a newer vanity and toilet. Heating and cooling appear to be via an older gas wall heater and window AC units, indicating outdated major systems. While functional, the kitchen and bathroom styles are significantly outdated and would require substantial renovation for modern appeal.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Strategic Location: Centrally located in downtown Victorville, offering excellent access to the freeway, major retailers (Costco, Home Depot), healthcare (Victor Valley Hospital), and diverse shopping/dining options.
High Growth Market: Positioned in the High Desert, an area projected for strong economic growth and job creation due to significant infrastructure projects like the Barstow International Gateway and Brightline High-Speed Rail.
Immediate Occupancy: Recently painted and presented as 'move-in ready,' minimizing initial expenses and effort for the new owner.
Flexible Investment/Living: The property's characteristics make it suitable for both owner-occupancy and as a rental investment, broadening its appeal to various buyer types.
Functional Interior Layout: Benefits from a practical floor plan including both a dedicated living room and a separate family room, along with the convenience of an indoor laundry facility.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 982, other record living area = 825.
Advanced Age of Structure: Constructed in 1938, the property's age may necessitate future investments in updating major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roofing) or addressing potential wear and tear.
Limited Room Count: With only 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, the property offers restricted living arrangements, which could be a limiting factor for larger households or those requiring additional space.
Compact Square Footage: The 982 square feet of living space is relatively modest, potentially not meeting the demands of buyers seeking more expansive or open-concept living environments.
