Storybook 1953 Cabin, 2 Bed 1 Bath with a Bonus Office/Flex Room, on .22 Acres! Built in 1953 and set on a beautifully maintained .22-acre lot along a county-maintained street with easy winter access, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath storybook cabin does the hard work of first impressions before you even reach the front door. A steep gabled roofline and cedar shake siding rise above stone wainscoting along the base, and the front yard is beautifully landscaped with mature trees and flowers. A paver walkway leads you in, and the whole picture reads as one of the best-kept properties on the street. Step inside to a charming, vintage-feeling mudroom that sets the tone for everything to come, opening straight into a warm, inviting living room, dining area, and kitchen, full of the cabin's old Idyllwild character: open beam ceilings, heavy wood doors, and original cabinetry the current owners have lovingly preserved and meticulously maintained. The kitchen comes fully equipped with all-new appliances, and a full bath and laundry closet complete the main level. To the right, a few steps down, a generously sized primary bedroom offers its own loft space. Original stairs at the center of the kitchen and living area lead up to a second bedroom with its own adjacent office space, tucked away and full of possibility. Beneath that character, the systems have been thoroughly modernized: over $60,000 in updates completed in 2017, including new insulation, drywall, and double-pane windows throughout, a heavy-duty propane line run fresh from tank to house, and a rebuilt bathroom with a custom tiled shower. Electrical was upgraded with a generator receptacle at the panel, so the systems are as current. From the kitchen, a second mudroom leads straight out to a magical backyard, the kind of space you never want to leave. A custom deck and private spa anchor the yard, all wrapped in full fencing, with a greenhouse and two storage sheds tucked in alongside a dedicated firewood shed. A large carport with boat parking sits to the left of the house, while dedicated RV parking is found on the right side. A rare combination of preserved character and modern reliability, ready for its next owner.
