More Insights

Built in 1926 (99 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1926, has undergone significant maintenance and some updates, including a metal roof, newer septic, and tankless water heater. The description mentions 'newer construction' for most of the home, implying substantial renovations at some point. However, the kitchen, while functional, features dated wood cabinets, older appliances (black range, white fridge), and worn flooring, suggesting a renovation that occurred 15-30 years ago rather than recently. The original wood floors in the living areas are also visibly worn. The bathroom, though stated to have 'updated fixtures,' is not fully visible, but the overall aesthetic points to an older renovation. While the home is well-maintained and livable, the outdated kitchen and worn flooring indicate it requires minor updates to meet current quality and style standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.

About this home

Here's your chance to own a little piece of history with this lovely 1926 home nestled on a hill in the quaint mountain community of Green Valley! Green Valley is conveniently located just ½ hour drive to Santa Clarita or Palmdale, and yet feels as if you escaped to the country! Enjoy privacy and scenic views on more than 1/3 acre lot (three lots included). The home features a private driveway (newly lined with crushed rock) leading up to a fenced entry gate. The front of the home has a raised foundation adorned with river rock along the bottom and attractive wood planking on top. The immediate area around home is fenced. Even though the original build date was 1926, other than the fireplace, foundation, wood floors, and rock wall out front, the rest of the home is newer construction. Of course, there have been additional improvements completed over the years, including a metal roof installed, new front door, interior paint, updated bathroom fixtures, new front porch installed with weather-resistant planking, newer septic tank installed, tankless water heater, renovated utility room off the kitchen with new drywall and paint. This home has original wood flooring in the great room with a grand floor-to-ceiling river rock fireplace as the focal point, and solid wood-beamed ceiling. Take in the surrounding beauty outside with plenty of windows throughout the home. Yearly grapes have been harvested with your own grapevines outside. Enjoy your access to a U.S Forestry Department Artesian spring filling up two 500-gallon tanks in your back yard. This is an affordable source of water with an approximate cost of $400 to $500 a year including pipe maintenance, depending on your usage. This property must be viewed in person to take in all the privacy, beauty, and ambiance it offers.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Water Source: The property benefits from a unique and highly affordable U.S. Forestry Department Artesian spring water supply, significantly reducing utility costs and offering a rare level of self-sufficiency.
Extensive Modern Updates with Historic Charm: Despite its 1926 origin, the home features 'newer construction' for most parts and numerous recent upgrades (metal roof, tankless water heater, updated bath, new porch, septic), while retaining desirable original features like wood floors, a river rock fireplace, and beamed ceilings.
Private & Scenic Setting: Situated on a hill across three lots totaling over 1/3 acre, the property offers unparalleled privacy, panoramic mountain views, and a tranquil, country-like ambiance.
Desirable Rural-Urban Balance: Provides a serene 'escaped to the country' lifestyle in a quaint mountain community, yet remains conveniently accessible with only a 30-minute drive to Santa Clarita or Palmdale.
Generous Multi-Lot Acreage: Comprising three lots totaling over 1/3 acre, this property offers significant outdoor space, enhanced privacy, and potential for future expansion or landscaping projects.

Cons

Limited Interior Space: With only 862 square feet, the home's small footprint (2 beds, 1 bath) may not accommodate buyers seeking larger living areas or additional bedrooms.
Age-Related Maintenance Potential: Despite significant updates, the 1926 original build date suggests potential for ongoing maintenance or unforeseen issues associated with an older property's underlying systems not explicitly mentioned as updated.
Commute to Amenities: While offering a rural escape, the 30-minute drive to larger towns like Santa Clarita or Palmdale could be a drawback for buyers prioritizing immediate access to extensive amenities, services, or shorter daily commutes.
