Down a quiet mountain road, a private drive winds through the trees to this cabin built in 1945, set on 0.41 acres and tucked into the hillside, a place that feels easy to settle into and hard to leave. This 1-bedroom, 1-bath retreat offers approximately 1,088 sq ft and reflects the kind of classic mountain cabin that is becoming harder to find. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and original pine paneling bring warmth, texture, and a true sense of character. Thoughtfully maintained and curated, its original charm remains intact. Entry begins in a mudroom with heated flooring, offering a comfortable transition inside. Straight ahead, the full bath features a clawfoot tub. To the left, the kitchen opens into a spacious eat-in area with a central dining space, wood cabinetry, tile counters, and natural light. Just beyond the kitchen, the living room opens under vaulted ceilings with a beautiful stone fireplace and wood-burning stove insert as its focal point. Playful, colorful accents highlight the wood-beamed ceilings, giving the space a distinct personality. It is the kind of room that invites you to sit down and stay awhile, where quiet mornings, evenings by the fire, and time spent together naturally turn into lasting memories. Off the right side of the kitchen, the bedroom is tucked into a quiet corner, with windows overlooking the surrounding grounds. At night, open the windows and take in the gentle sound of water and frogs in the distance. From the mudroom, a rear door leads directly outside. Just beyond the cabin, a large detached two-story structure offers flexible use. Semi-finished and ready to take shape, it could serve as a studio, workspace, or something entirely your own. The grounds unfold with stone terraces, winding paths, and multiple outdoor areas to gather or retreat. A series of cascading ponds and waterfalls move through the landscape, creating a soft, continuous rhythm of water. Lily pads and seasonal blooms add color and texture, while a drip irrigation system supports established landscaping including dogwoods, Japanese maple, manzanita, tall pines, and flowering meadows, all centered around a large, ancient oak tree that stands out as a true centerpiece of the property. Recent improvements include a newer roof, copper plumbing, upgraded electrical with a newer main panel, and central propane heating. Private, intentional, and full of character. A true mountain retreat.
