Description

Yes, this house has been on the market a few times. The difference now is the price. At $809,900 this is dollar for dollar the best deal on the mountain, and that is not an opinion, that is the math.
This 3-story craftsman sits on a corner lot in Idyllwild, close to town but tucked into the trees with sweeping panoramic views from multiple levels. At 3,308 square feet with a fully separate 2-bedroom ADU, the value here is hard to beat anywhere in the area.
The main residence features three bedrooms, two bathrooms, soaring beamed ceilings, an open floor plan, and seamless flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas. A loft adds flexible space for an office, studio, or additional sleeping, with direct access to the rooftop deck where the views will stop you in your tracks. The wraparound porch runs completely around the home, giving you shaded outdoor living space no matter the time of day.
The lower-level ADU is fully self-contained with two bedrooms, a full kitchen, its own bathroom, and private access. Whether you are looking for rental income, a guest suite, or multigenerational living, this unit delivers real, immediate value.
Outside, the in-ground heated pool and jacuzzi sit against the mountain landscape in a fully fenced yard with dedicated garden space. The detached garage is built for the enthusiast, equipped with a 2-post car lift and a full loft above, plus an additional attached single-car garage with direct home access. Six total parking spaces round out the functionality. Solar is already in place for energy efficiency.
This is a rare property that checks every box: income potential, room for everyone, serious outdoor living, and views that remind you exactly why people love Idyllwild.

  • 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."
