While built in 1930, the property has been meticulously maintained and selectively updated within the last 5-15 years. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances and updated tile alongside vintage fixtures, and the master suite includes a renovated bathroom. The inclusion of AC and the overall move-in ready condition elevate it from 'Fair' to 'Good' despite its chronological age.
Situated in the highly sought-after Palisades neighborhood just blocks from the water, this property includes essential lake rights and easy access to the lake trail, restaurants, and shops.
Built in 1930 and rumored to be James Cagney’s former cabin, the home features exceptional vintage character including original hardwood floors, casement windows, and a classic stone wood-burning fireplace.
The property features totally level parking, a highly desirable and rare asset in Lake Arrowhead that ensures easy year-round access and convenience for residents and guests.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1514, other record living area = 1184.
At 4,860 square feet, the lot is relatively small for the area, which may limit outdoor privacy and space for significant exterior expansions or large-scale landscaping.
While beautifully maintained, the 1930s construction and original architectural elements may require more frequent specialized maintenance compared to modern builds.
