Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1960, this property features a kitchen with 'original cabinetry' from that era, making it over 60 years old and significantly outdated in terms of style, functionality, and appliances. The bathrooms also appear very dated, with older fixtures and tiling. While the property is clean and well-maintained for its age, and the architecture is historically significant, the core living spaces (kitchen and bathrooms) require substantial renovation and rehabilitation to meet contemporary standards. This goes beyond minor updates, aligning with the 'Poor' condition criteria for requiring significant modernization in key areas, even if not structurally unsound.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Architectural Significance & Historic Status: This unit is a piece of architectural history, designed by Val Powelson, AIA, built by Robert Marx, and is listed on the Rancho Mirage Register of Historic Resources, offering unique cultural and aesthetic value.
Mills Act Tax Treatment: The entire complex benefits from Mills Act tax treatment, which provides significant property tax savings, making ownership more financially attractive.
Comprehensive HOA Inclusions: The HOA fees are exceptionally comprehensive, covering property taxes, building and earthquake insurance, roof, exterior structure and painting, landscaping, water, garbage, and pool/spa heating and maintenance, leading to predictable and lower out-of-pocket ownership costs.
Exceptional Privacy & Layout: The unique X-shaped building configuration ensures ultimate privacy with no shared living area walls, complemented by dual primary suites situated on opposite sides of the common areas.
Abundant Natural Light & Views: The residence is bathed in natural light, featuring vaulted ceilings and clerestory windows, and offers mountain and palm tree views from every window, creating a spacious and scenic living environment.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1432, other record living area = 28000.
Stock Cooperative Ownership: The property is a stock cooperative, which means buyers own shares in a corporation rather than direct real estate, potentially impacting financing options, resale processes, and ownership rights compared to traditional condominiums.
Dated Kitchen: While retaining 'mid-century modern vibes,' the kitchen features original cabinetry, which may be considered dated by some buyers and could necessitate future renovation to meet contemporary aesthetic and functional standards.
Age of Building: Built in 1960, the property is over 60 years old. While historically significant and well-maintained externally by the HOA, older construction can sometimes imply potential for aging interior systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical) that may require future attention.
