Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1960, this property has received some recent cosmetic updates, such as fresh paint, updated flooring in living areas, and one fully renovated bathroom with modern fixtures and tiling. However, the kitchen features older appliances and cabinet structures, despite a newer backsplash and hardware. The second bathroom also appears dated with an older shower enclosure. The heating system is an older wall furnace, and there is no central air conditioning. While well-maintained and move-in ready, the property has not undergone a full, cohesive renovation, and several major components are functional but outdated, requiring minor updates to achieve a consistent modern standard.
The property boasts a desirable location close to downtown Joshua Tree, appealing to both residents and the robust tourist/rental market.
Explicitly marketed as an 'investment home,' it offers potential for rental income or future appreciation in a popular desert destination.
Features a large, covered patio, providing valuable outdoor living and entertaining space, well-suited for the Joshua Tree climate.
The listing price is 21% above the estimated property value, which may deter potential buyers and impact market competitiveness.
Built in 1960, the property may have original systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require significant updates or maintenance in the near future.
With only 884 sqft, the interior living space is relatively small, which might limit its appeal to buyers seeking more spacious accommodations.
Here's the deal! A neat ready to go 1st.,2nd. or investment home waiting for you! 2 bedroom, 2 bathrooms, a large, covered patio, with established landscaping close to downtown Joshua Tree.
No exterior & parking available.
