Property is moderate renovation needed.
Originally built in 1921, the property shows renovations (kitchen cabinetry and bathroom tiling) that appear to be 20-30 years old, placing it in the dated category. While it features modern additions like solar power and smart home technology, the aesthetic of the oak cabinets and tile-top vanities suggests it needs cosmetic updates and minor repairs typical of a 'Fair' rating.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 23174, living area = 1490.
Nestled among ancient redwoods on a generous half-acre lot, this property offers a private, treehouse-like atmosphere with stunning forest views and a spacious redwood deck for outdoor living.
The home is equipped with eco-friendly and high-tech upgrades, including solar power, a LIFX smart lighting system, and a premium ENVO smart bidet, blending rustic charm with modern convenience.
With only one bathroom serving a nearly 1,500-square-foot home, the layout may be less convenient for families or guests, potentially limiting its appeal to certain buyer segments.
Having spent nearly 100 days on the market with multiple price reductions, the property may face perception challenges regarding its value or specific mountain-related maintenance needs.
Tucked into the redwoods behind the historic Brookdale Lodge, this light filled mountain retreat feels like a private treehouse in the forest. Follow the winding road home and leave the traffic, screens and schedules behind. Enter through the kitchen to a comfortable living room featuring multiple skylights, a wood-burning stove, and a glass-brick-topped half wall that creates distinct spaces while maintaining an open feel. Each bedroom offers its own character: the upstairs bedroom has soaring ceilings, a balcony, and magnificent forest views, while the downstairs bedroom includes a cozy nook perfect for reading, studying, daydreaming. Modern conveniences abound, including solar power, a LIFX smart lighting system, and an ENVO smart toilet with bidet. Outside, a spacious redwood deck invites relaxation beneath the trees, with a hot tub nearby for soaking under the stars. Two additional structures provide flexibility for storage, hobbies, or a potential work-from-home space. Whether you are seeking a full-time residence, weekend escape, or creative sanctuary, this Brookdale hideaway offers the rare opportunity to live among the redwoods and feel like you're on vacation every day. Wake to birdsong, unwind beneath the stars, and rediscover what it means to slow down.
