Rancho Mirage, California 92270
This Mid-Century Ranch Fixer-Upper represents a strategic Value-Add Asset in the prestigious Tamarisk Heights enclave, currently listed at $800,000. While the $535,102 Fair Market Value reflects its current Major Fixer-Upper Condition, the property’s valuation is anchored by its expansive 12,632 sqft lot and unobstructed Mountain Views. The significant lot-to-living-area ratio provides ample footprint for a luxury pool and an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), offering massive potential for forced appreciation. This "time capsule" is a prime acquisition for Experienced Renovators or Mid-Century Modern Enthusiasts looking to capitalize on the high-demand Rancho Mirage market.
