Built in 1959, the property, despite its charm and updates, may have underlying older infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical) that could require future maintenance or upgrades not immediately apparent.
Given the desert climate of Indio and the 1959 build year, the efficiency and capacity of the existing cooling system (if any) may need to be assessed and potentially upgraded for optimal comfort and energy savings.
