Welcome Home! Nestled along Mill Creek Road in upper Mentone and adjacent to the open nature preserve, sits a charming 1950 California Ranch. This property is a true, secret treasure! The home blends classic character with thoughtful updates made over the years. The home features rustic river rock accents at its base adding warmth and timeless appeal. Inside, warm wood-paneled walls and a cozy wood-burning stove create an inviting living room, complete with a built-in entertainment center. The single-story layout offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus a security system already in place. Step out back to a beautifully landscaped oasis with custom hardscape, sparkling pool, and sweeping panoramic mountain views. The entire property, front and back, is enclosed by wood fencing for added privacy. An attached two-car garage with an additional half bath, an expansive driveway with room for up to six vehicles, and space for RV parking provide plenty of room for toys, guests, and more. The generous lot also offers potential for an ADU (buyer to verify with San Bernardino County). Nature lovers will appreciate the preserve behind the home, with native plants and walking trails just beyond the fence, plus close proximity to the Santa Ana River Trail for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. A rare blend of history, comfort, and natural beauty! NEWER HVAC SYSTEM, NEWER ATTIC INSULATION, EARTHQUAKE BRACING DONE, NEWER REAR YARD IRRIGATION
