FEE LAND. NO LAND LEASE. Welcome to Casitas Arenas, an intimate enclave in the highly sought-after south end of Palm Springs. Located just two blocks from downtown, this quiet, well-positioned community offers a rare blend of proximity and serenity, with minimal wind and no air traffic, an increasingly valuable distinction this close to the city's core. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence presents a compelling opportunity to reimagine and elevate a space in a location that consistently commands attention. Offered at $425,000, the pricing reflects its renovation-ready condition, with comparable residences of similar size currently positioned between $499,000 and $575,000. Nearby amenities include theaters, dining, and coffee, with Palm Springs International Airport approximately five minutes away by car. The community features covered parking and a pool, and its location supports strong seasonal rental demand (30+ days), making it equally appealing as a personal retreat or investment. Residences in Casitas Arenas are rarely available. This is an opportunity to create a refined desert residence in one of Palm Springs' most desirable settings. HOA $486 per month. *** Please note: This unit had recent water damage, but the damage has been professionally remediated, mold tested and certified to be mold free. The kitchen is missing its lower cabinets due to a water leak behind the sink which leaked into the dining room carpet, and the primary bedroom had a water leak from the outside spigot which caused water damage to the north wall of the bedroom and the carpeting. The carpeting has been removed in the primary bedroom and living room/dining room, and the damaged walls have been repaired and painted.
