More Insights

Built in 2007 (19 years old).
Condition: Built in 2007, this property is well-maintained with functional systems like HVAC and an Evap Cooler, and durable tile flooring in main areas. However, the kitchen features white appliances and traditional wood cabinets, and the bathrooms have standard fixtures and vanity lights, all of which appear original to the build year and are aesthetically outdated. While functional, these areas would require minor updates to meet current design preferences.

About this home

Come see and fall in love with this custom, energy efficient home in California City; 3 full size bedrooms, a bonus room and 3 full baths (the primary and one guest room has its own private full bath); tile floors; open kitchen with gorgeous light granite countertops; pantry; plenty of cabinets for storage; breakfast bar counter; large dining area; open and large family room with wood burning custom fireplace (it's almost time for this); laundry room; HVAC and Evap Cooler; finished garage. Even though this home would be considered ''in-town'' and ''close to everything'', it doesn't feel that way. Enjoy the mornings or evenings viewing the painted skies and desert tranquility while sitting on the front covered porch or full length covered back patio. The backyard has some improvements for a garden and planters and is ready for your own personal touches.

Location Specificity/Market Appeal: California City's desert location may not appeal to all buyer demographics, potentially limiting the buyer pool compared to properties in more diverse or densely populated markets.
Potential for Limited Immediate Amenities: Although described as 'in-town' and 'close to everything,' the phrasing 'it doesn't feel that way' could imply a lack of immediate, vibrant community amenities or walkability that some buyers expect from an 'in-town' property.
