Property Description
Some homes are simply places to live. This one is meant to be experienced. Meticulously transformed by its designer-owner, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1,456 sq ft Fern Valley retreat has undergone over $300,000 in high-end improvements, blending modern comfort with the serenity of Idyllwild. Set on .73 acres, including two additional parcels, one of them buildable, this property offers rare privacy and a seamless connection to nature. Wide-plank natural pine floors, smooth lime-washed walls, and curated lighting create a warm, refined atmosphere. As you enter, a sunken living room opens to the right, where large windows offer glimpses of the mountains beyond. The kitchen and dining area sit just ahead, where a sliding glass door opens to an expansive deck with views into the surrounding forest. The kitchen features Fisher & Paykel built-in induction cooktop, oven, and refrigerator, custom cabinetry, and a silent Bosch dishwasher. A Miele washer and dryer are tucked into a thoughtfully designed laundry closet. The main level includes a guest bedroom and a full bathroom with spa-like finishes. From the newly added picture window, take in peaceful views of deer and local wildlife drinking from the garden stream as you unwind in the bath. Upstairs, the primary bedroom, an additional guest bedroom, and a second bathroom offer privacy and treetop views. Throughout the home, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and expansive windows invite natural light from morning to evening, enhancing the sense of space and connection to the outdoors. A partially finished basement with concrete flooring and separate exterior access offers flexibility for future expansion. A dedicated storage room provides space for tools, gear, or seasonal items. Landscaping includes maples, lilacs, conifers, junipers, and roses, maintained by a drip irrigation system. There are also two fruiting peach trees, two cherry trees, an apple tree, and a nectarine tree. A flagstone patio, fencing, retaining walls, and outdoor lighting define the outdoor living space. A stone-accented water feature flows gently through the property, drawing birds, deer, and other wildlife.The home is EV charger ready and generator-ready, with an inverter switch that keeps essential systems running when needed. Set back from the street and bathed in natural light from dawn to dusk, this home is a true mountain retreat. With turn-key options available, it's ready to be enjoyed.
