Property is move-in ready.
This 1964 property is in move-in ready condition, having undergone significant cosmetic renovations to suit a modern 'desert oasis' aesthetic. The home features updated industrial cement floors, fresh paint, and newer windows. The kitchen has been refreshed with stone countertops and open shelving, though it retains some older elements like painted cabinetry and white appliances. While the presence of popcorn ceilings and the original 1960s structure prevent an 'excellent' rating, the overall maintenance and recent upgrades to the kitchen and bathrooms make it a high-quality, turn-key residence.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7440, living area = 982.
The property is a proven Airbnb sold fully furnished, offering an immediate income-generating opportunity or a seamless, move-in-ready experience for a vacation home buyer.
Ideally situated just minutes from the Joshua Tree National Park entrance and the eclectic shops and cafes of downtown, ensuring high demand for short-term rentals.
At just 982 square feet with a 1.5-bath configuration, the compact layout may limit appeal for larger groups or buyers seeking more spacious living areas.
Originally built in 1964, the property may require more frequent maintenance or future upgrades to its older mechanical and structural systems compared to newer desert builds.
