More Insights
Built in 1986 (40 years old).
Condition: Built in 1986, the property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but shows its age in several areas. The kitchen has been updated with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, which is a positive. However, the bathrooms feature dated tile countertops, integrated sinks, and older fixtures, indicating they are largely original or were last updated 15-20+ years ago. Flooring is a mix of older tile, carpet, and some laminate, which are functional but not modern. While clean, the home would benefit from cosmetic updates to bring it to current styles.

About this home
Set in the middle of the Coachella Valley's famous Candy Cane Lane is a perfect 3 bed, 2 bath split level home. The kitchen has granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. There's access to the large L-shaped pool and spa from the living room, upstairs bedroom deck and the master bedroom patio. The attached 2-car garage is actually big enough for storage on both sides. You'll be close enough to walk to Panorama Park for baseball, tennis and soccer. Panorama Park also has walking paths and a playground. Simply because you're on Candy Cane Lane, the street is highly desirable (within the city) due to its built-in sense of community and festive holiday spirit. This is a wonderful opportunity for first-time buyers, an investor, or anyone looking for a centrally located home in a friendly neighborhood.
