What with prices continuing to rise, you can rest assured you have a wonderfully valued Mid-Century Bungalow gem with this Two Bedroom and One Full Bath home with a huge Bonus Room in the heart of the growing city of Desert Hot Springs. The home is set well back from the street and gated which allows you to develop the Front Yard into a new outdoor living space. You can do so many things to take advantage of the panoramic views of Mount San Jacinto and the West Coachella Valley, and you still have a separate vast Rear Yard area to develop into your own Garden of Eden. Parking is a true first advantage with this home as you have BOTH an expansive Carport and a round-the-corner one vehicle Garage hidden away in the rear of the property, plus several behind gates uncovered parking spaces to utilize for you and your guests' vehicles. As this Parcel is zoned R-2, you can also have the option to easily build profitable ADU's on the open areas of the property, making this a real income producer. It has been used recently as an Income Property with great rental potential. As you come inside the charming Front Door, the Living Room greets you with a true Bungalow style that contains arching open ceilings that are crossed and trussed in warmly colored real wood timbers. A cozy Gas Fireplace clad in brick continues to bring out its charm. To your right you have a cozy Dining Area which leads to the efficient Galley Kitchen. Surfaces of wood cabinetry and drawers and tile countertops are soothing, and natural light from the Southwest corner windows keeps it light and giving you a view as you use the sink. On the other side of the home, the two Bedrooms have a private feel, with the larger Bedroom hosting a Mid-Century style built-in closet, while the smaller Bedroom has a small walk-in Closet. The Full Bath boasts a large Tub with overhead Shower, and the recently added pedestal Sink and low flow Commode are great updates to the room. The Hallway has many built-in storage drawers and shelves that allow for centralized Linen and Storage capability. Finally, the extraordinarily large Bonus Room off the rear of the home is fully window enclosed which brings in tons of lighting and has more design elements that give it that period feel including a skylight. Access to the Garage is here, and the large one vehicle Garage includes additional storage along its walls and the Laundry Area, helping to keep the rest of the house cool by keeping it separate from the rest of the interior areas. A sizeable Evaporative Cooler is installed as well as one of the many retro wall heaters, so this Bonus Room can be so many things to you year-round. Finally, the exterior of the home is surrounded by parking and a blank slate for you to enlarge upon to make the home your own. It is on the lower hillside of the city of Desert Hot Springs, so you are within a near distance to many amenities while still being in the higher and cooler section of town. Many things have been updated in the home including all the plumbing and the recent addition of a very efficient split Air Conditioner unit in the Dining Area which easily services all the home interior areas. The Front Door has a recently added Security Screen Door which aids in airflow during a lot of the year as well. At this price point, we expect this home to move quickly, so take advantage to make it your new home space today!
