About this home

This charming two bedroom/two bath home with front sunporch entry is light and bright, painted the colors of the sunset, with an attached bonus room (converted garage) not included in the square footage. Indoor-outdoor living with astroturf between the house, bonus room and gazebo. Ample parking behind gates. Yale locks on kitchen entry and stained glass door to the bonus room are an added convenience, especially if using as a rental. Conveniently located on a paved road in the small high desert community of Morongo Valley, just 10 minutes down the mountain to Palm Springs, or 15 minutes up the mountain to Yucca Valley and beyond, to Joshua Tree National Park. This cozy home is on over 1/3 acre, gated and fenced for privacy, with ample parking behind gates. Remodeled in 2021 and 2022 - see the Transfer Disclosure Statement with attachments for a list of improvements made. The most notable is the renovated gas fireplace in the master bedroom.

Cons

Historic Construction: Built in 1940, the property's age, despite recent remodels, may present challenges with older infrastructure or require specific maintenance considerations not covered by cosmetic updates.
Compact Interior Footprint: With 1064 sqft, the interior living space is relatively modest, which might be a limiting factor for buyers seeking more expansive primary residences.
