Property is move-in ready.
This 1949 mid-century home is move-in ready and has been well-maintained with 'desert-cool' aesthetic updates. The interior features polished concrete floors, updated butcher block kitchen countertops, and modern light fixtures. While it retains original character such as the vintage pink bathroom fixtures and masonry walls, the property has been practically reworked for multi-unit living and appears to have no immediate need for renovation, fitting the criteria for a well-maintained, functional home.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 44431, living area = 1944.
The property is uniquely configured into three separate living spaces—a 3-bedroom unit, a 1-bedroom unit, and a detached studio—offering exceptional flexibility for short-term rentals, long-term tenants, or multi-generational living.
Situated on a nearly 1-acre corner lot, the property provides significant outdoor space for expansion and is ideally located near Joshua Tree National Park and the USMC base, ensuring high demand from both tourists and local residents.
The multi-unit configuration and garage conversion rely on 'prior records' and require thorough buyer due diligence to ensure all living spaces are fully permitted and compliant with local building codes.
With a construction date of 1949, the property may require significant updates to its core systems, such as plumbing, electrical, and insulation, to handle the extreme desert climate efficiently.
