Built in 1988 (37 years old).
Condition: Built in 1988, this property is 36 years old and shows clear signs of its age. The bathrooms feature original or very dated vanities, strip lighting, and tile flooring. The living areas also have dated tile. While the home appears to be clean and maintained with fresh paint, there's no evidence of major renovations. The kitchen, though not pictured, is likely in a similar dated condition. It is functional but requires significant cosmetic updates to the kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring to meet modern standards, aligning with a property built over 20 years ago with no major renovations since construction.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location & Community Growth: Centrally located in a growing, revitalized community, minutes from Downtown Indio and major shopping centers off Highway 111, offering convenience and potential for appreciation.
Starter Home Appeal: Explicitly marketed as a 'Perfect Starter Home,' making it an attractive and potentially affordable option for first-time homebuyers or small families.
Outdoor Space Potential: Features a backyard large enough for a pool and additional space on the side for potential RV parking, offering significant customization and utility for outdoor living.
Bedroom Count: With 4 bedrooms, the property provides ample space for a family, guest rooms, or dedicated home office areas, adding versatility.
School Access: Proximity to multiple public schools, including highly-rated middle and elementary schools, is a strong draw for families with children.
Cons
Age of Property & Potential Updates: Built in 1988, the property may require significant updates to major systems (HVAC, roof, plumbing, electrical) and interior finishes to meet modern standards and avoid future repair costs.
Absence of Mentioned Cooling System: Given Indio's hot climate, the lack of explicit mention of a modern or efficient cooling system could be a significant concern for potential buyers, implying an older unit or none at all.
Interior Space for Bedroom Count: With 4 bedrooms in 1433 sqft, individual room sizes might be relatively compact, potentially limiting spaciousness or flexibility for larger furniture.
