Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1928, this historical property is a mix of partially updated units and rustic, vintage outbuildings. While the main duplex features modernized plumbing, electric, and HVAC, the overall property is sold 'As-Is' and shows significant age-related wear. The kitchens and bathrooms in the secondary cottages are dated or basic, and the very low square footage relative to the number of units suggests a need for substantial cosmetic and functional modernization to meet current market expectations for a multi-unit retreat.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 87120, living area = 987.

  • Prime Location

    Situated directly across from Joshua Tree National Park and only one mile from downtown 29 Palms, the property offers exceptional visibility and access for tourism-driven ventures.

  • Versatile Zoning

    The Service Commercial (CS) and Residential N/C zoning provides rare flexibility for multiple uses, including a boutique hotel, event space, restaurant, or private retreat.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • As-Is Condition

    The property is sold in as-is condition, and given the 1928 construction date, buyers should expect significant capital expenditure for restoration and modernizing the historic outbuildings.

  • Limited Permitted Square Footage

    With only 987 square feet listed for five separate dwellings, the individual units are likely very small, which may restrict their utility for long-term occupancy or high-end luxury guests.
