Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property, built in 1984, shows signs of age but has been maintained. The kitchen features older wooden cabinetry and appliances that appear functional but not modern. The bathrooms have classic tile finishes, particularly the guest bathroom, which indicates they haven't been recently updated. While the central HVAC and newer water heater are positives, the overall aesthetic and some fixtures suggest a need for minor updates to align with current standards. The flooring in the kitchen and dining area appears to be a newer wood-look tile, which is a positive update, but the carpet in the living areas and bedrooms seems dated. The property is move-in ready but would benefit from cosmetic improvements, especially in the kitchen and bathrooms, to enhance its appeal and value.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 18369, living area = 1508.
Situated in the desirable Upper Friendly Hills neighborhood of Joshua Tree, offering proximity to Joshua Tree National Park and a quiet, mature tree-lined setting.
Generous lot size with a long driveway, gated and fenced yards, carport, two-car garage, RV hookups, RV pad, and a storage shed, providing extensive utility and storage.
Built in 1984, the property may require future updates to align with modern aesthetic preferences or building codes.
The guest bathroom retains classic tile finishes, which may not appeal to all buyers and could be a candidate for renovation.
While mature trees are present, the overall landscaping may require additional attention to maximize curb appeal and desert-appropriate aesthetics.
