This architectural gem, designed by renowned architect Dennis McGuire as his first project in Idyllwild, CA, is a breathtaking masterpiece anchored and pinned to massive granite boulders, some of which grace the interior of the home. Clad in Simpson Redwood plywood with resawn redwood accents inside and out, the home seamlessly blends natural elements with modern design. Expansive views span from Mount Wilson-aligned with the summer solstice sunset-to Mount San Gorgonio and Black Mountain. The main level boasts a light-filled kitchen with tiled counters, a dining area, and a living room with soaring ceilings, a dramatic fireplace, and unparalleled vistas. The primary bedroom opens to a private deck for peaceful mountain moments. A lower-level guest room, featuring a cozy bay-like nook framed by glass, offers space for an office or serene retreat. Relax in the skylit shower, soak in the top-quality hot tub, or unwind on multi-level decks surrounded by nature. This rare visual jewel invites you to experience a harmonious balance of nature and design.
