Condition Rating
Tear down

The MLS listing explicitly describes an industrial rock quarry, not a residential property. While residential attributes (2 beds, 2 baths, 1852 sqft) are listed, these are directly contradicted by the detailed description and all provided images, which depict an active mining operation. There is no information or visual evidence to assess the condition of any residential structure, kitchen, or bathrooms. The property's value is entirely based on its industrial use and land, rendering any potential residential component either non-existent, unlivable, or irrelevant to the property's primary purpose. Therefore, for the residential aspect, it is considered a tear-down as its value is solely based on the land and its industrial redevelopment potential.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 3467376, living area = 1852.
Approved Mining & Reclamation Plan: The property benefits from an approved mining and reclamation plan, providing a clear operational framework and legal compliance for 24 years, with an expiration date in 2039.
Substantial Mineral Reserves & Expansion Potential: Features proven mineral reserves with a capacity of 300,000 tons per year (expandable) and an additional 72± unpermitted acres available for future expansion, ensuring long-term resource availability.
Strategic Location with Excellent Access: Strategically located near key infrastructure, offering direct highway and rail access, which is crucial for efficient transport of aggregates to major projects like the BNSF $1.5 Billion Rail Facility.
High Market Demand & Limited Competition: Positioned in a rapidly growing region (Barstow & High Desert) with increasing demand for aggregates due to infrastructure projects and population growth, coupled with limited local competition.
Diverse Product Offerings & Value-Add Potential: Capable of producing multiple aggregate products (Asphalt, Concrete, decorative rock, Rip Rap, Class II Base) and offers the potential to establish a slurry seal plant for additional revenue streams.

Cons

Zoning/Property Type Discrepancy: The listing incorrectly categorizes the property as 'Residential' (Single Family Residence with beds/baths/sqft) despite the detailed description of an industrial rock quarry, which could pose significant challenges for financing, legal use, and market perception.
Permit Expiration & Renewal Risk: The current mining permit has a defined expiration date of December 31, 2039, necessitating future renewal processes that may involve regulatory complexities, potential costs, and uncertainties.
Capital Intensive Operation & Reclamation Costs: Operating a rock quarry is inherently capital-intensive, requiring substantial investment in equipment, infrastructure, and ongoing operational expenses, in addition to mandatory 5-year reclamation costs.
