Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1981, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready but remains largely dated in style. The kitchen features older white appliances and cabinetry, and the bathroom fixtures reflect an older design standard. While the HVAC motor was updated in 2022 and the unit is clean with functional systems, it lacks the comprehensive modern renovations required for a higher rating, fitting the description of an aged home maintained through regular upkeep.
The condo boasts exceptional panoramic views of the San Bernardino Mountains and the 12th green, offering a high-value aesthetic for golf enthusiasts and nature lovers.
A rare $35,000 value-add, the enclosed two-car garage features its own cooling system and a new washer/dryer, providing significant utility and storage compared to standard units.
Located in a short-term rental friendly community with extensive amenities including 20 pools and 28 pickleball courts, this property is an ideal investment or seasonal retreat.
At $845 per month, the association fees are relatively high, which may impact the overall affordability and monthly carrying costs for some buyers.
With only one bedroom and one bathroom, the property's appeal may be restricted to a narrower demographic, such as solo occupants or short-term vacationers.
