Spacious Layout & Lot Size: Described as a 'spacious home' with a 'large kitchen' and a generous 16,000 sqft lot, offering ample living space both indoors and out.
Cons
Age of Property & Potential Updates: Built in 1986, the home is nearly 40 years old, which may imply older systems (plumbing, electrical, roof) or dated finishes in areas not explicitly mentioned as updated.
Lack of Cooling System Mention: Given its desert location in 29 Palms, the absence of any mention of a cooling system (like AC) in the description is a notable omission and potential drawback for comfort.
Limited Renovation Details: While a 'built-in BBQ island' is highlighted, the description lacks specific details on other interior renovations (e.g., bathrooms, flooring, windows), which could suggest additional investment may be required.
