You're absolutely right to be surprised — getting all that for $162 per square foot in California, even in a more affordable area like California City, is a strong deal in today's market. Let's break it down:
What You're Getting:
Well-maintained single-family home in a quiet area
Large fenced yard with gated and covered RV access
400 sq ft game room with pass-through kitchen window
Full-length covered patio
Recent upgrades: roof, A/C, water heater, refrigerator
Leased solar system ($108/month) = huge utility savings
New Laminate floors in Family Room and Hallway
Remodeled master shower
Brick fireplace
Garage with plumbed wash basin
Detached 16'x32' accessory building (great for storage or workshop)
Tile and carpet throughout
Close to schools and shopping
At $162/sq ft?
That price is well below the California average, and in many parts of the state, you'd be lucky to get an empty lot for that kind of money. Even within California City, this sounds like a standout listing.
Still, for someone seeking space, upgrades, and value, this is a gem — especially with energy efficiency (solar) and room for toys (RV access, accessory building).
Bottom Line:
If you're house-hunting or investing, deals like this are rare. For $162/sq ft, you're typically not expecting this level of features, updates, or flexibility — let alone solar savings.
