Description

Welcome to this fully restored 1923 cabin on River Drive, one of the most desirable streets in Idyllwild. Located on a corner lot very close to Strawberry Creek access and downtown Idyllwild, this amazing 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin at the corner of River and Fir has it all: upgraded electrical panel and wiring, new plumbing, new foundation, new insulation, skylights, a new deck with views, a new HVAC (AC and forced air furnace), washer and dryer, as well as a completely upgraded kitchen with new appliances and upgraded bathrooms, all of which feature handmade pine cabinets and pine slab countertops. But many of the original features, like the hardwood floors, river rock fireplace, walls, river rock chimney, windows, and hand-built stone entrance steps, were lovingly restored to maintain and highlight the cabin's original beauty. This incredibly charming cabin boasts a large living room and separate dining room, en suite master bath, as well as a storage shed/workshop and separate laundry area. The .17 flat lot has a former foundation and plenty of room to add a garage, too. Imagine having coffee on your new handmade log bench on your new deck as you watch the sun rise over the mountain ridge. Whether for part time or full time living, properties on River Drive rarely come on the market. Make sure not to miss this amazing gem in the pines!

    "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."

    "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!"
