More Insights
Built in 1979 (47 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1979, has received significant recent updates including a new air conditioner, new roof, new carpet, and one remodeled bathroom, which are strong positives. However, the kitchen features very dated wood-grain laminate cabinets and older appliances (except for a newer microwave), and the second bathroom remains largely original and outdated. The extensive wood paneling throughout the living areas also contributes to an aged aesthetic. While major systems have been addressed, the overall interior style and condition of key areas like the kitchen and one bathroom require substantial updates to meet current standards, placing it in the 'Fair' category.

About this home
Opportunity is knocking right now!!! This is one of the best priced homes you will ever find. Live out in the country away from it all instead of impoverishing yourself with a huge home loan. Big and roomy home is on a cul-de-sac with 2.5 acres and views of the Tehachapi Mountains. Bring your animals, bring your work trucks, build a workshop. Privacy is the word. There is a huge deck for entertaining. New air conditioner, new roof, new carpet, remodeled bathroom, some new windows. There is a private well, septic installed and power is already to the property. You can live in the existing home while building your dream home or a Guest Home (ADU) for monthly income. You are away from it all while being around a five minute drive to town or the 14 freeway. This home is not on a permanent foundation but loans are available.

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 = 108900, living area = 1440.
Expansive & Private Lot: A generous 2.5-acre cul-de-sac lot provides exceptional privacy, ample space for animals, work vehicles, and potential workshops.
Recent Major Upgrades: Significant recent investments in a new AC, roof, carpet, remodeled bathroom, and some new windows reduce immediate buyer expenses and enhance livability.
Independent Utilities: Equipped with a private well and septic system, offering self-sufficiency and eliminating municipal water and sewer utility costs.
Development & Income Potential: The large acreage presents a unique opportunity to build a secondary dwelling (ADU) for rental income or a future dream home while residing in the current structure.
Scenic Views & Outdoor Living: Enjoy picturesque views of the Tehachapi Mountains and a large deck, perfect for entertaining and embracing the serene rural environment.
Cons
Non-Permanent Foundation: The home's lack of a permanent foundation is a critical factor that can restrict financing options, complicate appraisals, and potentially affect long-term appreciation and resale value.
Significant Recent Price Jump: A substantial increase from a $117,000 sale in February 2024 to the current $299,000 listing price warrants thorough due diligence on valuation and market comparables.
Age of Core Structure: While updated, the 1979 build year means the underlying structure and some original systems are older, which could lead to unforeseen maintenance needs in the future.
