Description

**Seller is willing to pay up to $12,000 in rate buy down or buyer could also apply that to closing cost.** Set against the backdrop of Idyllwild’s breathtaking natural beauty, this exceptional three-story mountain retreat offers a rare blend of versatility, views, and lifestyle. Situated on a spacious lot, the property is thoughtfully designed to capture sweeping panoramic vistas from multiple outdoor living spaces, including a stunning rooftop deck and an expansive wraparound upper deck, perfect for entertaining or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The main residence features three bedrooms and an open concept floor plan with soaring ceilings and abundant natural light, creating an airy and inviting atmosphere. A loft space adds flexibility for additional living, office, or creative use, and direct access to the rooftop deck, while the seamless flow between kitchen, dining, and living areas enhances both everyday comfort and hosting. Adding significant value and opportunity, the home includes a separate lower-level unit complete with its own full kitchen, two bedrooms, and bathroom, along with private access, ideal for rental income, guest accommodations, or multigenerational living. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a in-ground pool and jacuzzi set against the mountain landscape, a fully fenced yard ideal for dogs, and dedicated space for gardening, offering a true blend of recreation and functionality. Additional features include solar for energy efficiency, a detached two-car garage equipped with a 2-post lift and loft area, plus an additional one-car attached garage with access to the house, providing ample space for vehicles, storage, or hobby use. This is a unique opportunity to own a property that delivers on design, flexibility, and income potential, all while embracing the very best of mountain living.

    "Great for hiking not always safe to leave a dog unattended due to other wild animals like coyotes or deer."
  • Cedarnpinelodge
    "We are a small mountain community of 3,000. We have Town Hall meetings and talk about problems that the community faces or has. "
  • KK C.
    "There are many dog-friendly people in the neighborhood, and there are great trails and hiking areas where leashed dogs are welcome; however not all dogs in idyllwild are socialized, and there are not many enclosed public spaces where dogs can safely play together off-leash."

    "We are a small town where everyone knows everyone and we all say hi to each other. Not only that we have a dog as mayor "
  • Cedarnpinelodge
    "It’s a very small village of About 1,800 full time residents. It’s a resort mountain town with no skiing. It’s known for rock climbing & hiking. Perched above the low desert of Palm Desert people escape here from the high heat there. No fast food and Mom and pop shops. Dogs as Mayors for the village. It’s like living back when everyone knew your name, kids could ride their bikes, and they were safe. It’s a secret, not many people even know we are up here. So shhh we like it that way! It’s Magical!"
  • Michael W.
    "Great place to get away to. Quiet, cozy, well maintained and easy to keep that way."
  • Michael W.
    "Very peaceful area for anyone that likes the mountain areas and appreciates getting away from all the hustle & bustle of the city."
