Originally built in 1963, this mountain cabin showcases the volume and character that define Idyllwild living. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and wood-burning stoves create a warm, open interior with strong architectural appeal. New dual pane windows and doors bring in natural light and frame the surrounding trees, while the open living, dining, and kitchen layout flows easily for both everyday living and entertaining. The main level offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Upstairs, a private loft bedroom is connected by a bridge to a separate elevated nook, ideal for a reading area, workspace, or quiet retreat overlooking the living space below. Additional bonus areas provide flexibility for a variety of uses. A large elevated deck extends into the trees, creating a private outdoor setting. Set on a 0.41-acre cul-de-sac lot, the property offers a natural landscape with a strong sense of privacy. Furnishings are negotiable for a turnkey option.
