About this property

Welcome to mountain living in the heart of Idyllwild! Situated on a desirable corner lot with a large yard, this inviting 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the character, space, and flexibility that make mountain living so appealing. Conveniently located close to the center of town, Idyllwild Arts, local shops, restaurants, schools, and the many outdoor experiences the area is known for, this is an opportunity to enjoy the unique lifestyle of one of Southern California's most beloved mountain communities. Inside, the spacious kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and generous counter space. Exposed beams and warm wood details add to the home's mountain character, while the living room features a new wood stove and chimney insert installed in 2025—perfect for cozy Idyllwild evenings. The bedrooms and living room were also freshly painted in 2025. The flexible floor plan includes two bedrooms and a full bathroom on the main level, with two additional bedrooms and another bathroom upstairs. The wood flooring upstairs was beautifully refinished in 2025. New carpeting has also been added in select rooms. One of the standout features of this property is the basement, currently being used as a pottery studio. A new electrical panel has been added specifically for the basement, along with a new window, and the space has its own private entrance from the front of the property in addition to interior access. With Idyllwild's strong connection to the arts and the property's close proximity to Idyllwild Arts, this space is especially appealing for an artist or creative buyer. It would also make an excellent workshop, hobby room, maker space, or additional storage area. Outside, the large lot provides plenty of room to enjoy the mountain setting. Create your own garden, expand the outdoor entertaining areas, or simply enjoy having additional space around you. A separately fenced area provides a convenient space for pets, while the wrap-around deck is ready for morning coffee, entertaining, or relaxing among the trees. Additional improvements include a new 50-gallon electric water heater installed in 2025. The property is also connected to sewer—no septic system to maintain. Whether you're searching for a full-time residence, mountain retreat, or a home with dedicated space to create, work, garden, and enjoy the outdoors, this property offers tremendous versatility. Experience the charm of Idyllwild mountain community living.
