Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

This 1924 vintage cabin is well-maintained and functional but remains largely in its original or aged state. While it features high-end niche appliances like a Sub-Zero/Cove dishwasher and a retro-style refrigerator, the kitchen and bathrooms show significant stylistic dating with older cabinetry and tile. The heavy wood paneling, aged carpets, and the fact that the sale includes ready-to-permit remodeling plans indicate that the property requires modernization to meet current standards.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 9563, living area = 1115.

  • Prime Secluded Location

    Nestled in a gated community with rare total seclusion among redwoods and pines, yet conveniently located within a 7-minute walk to Blue Jay’s shops, restaurants, and amenities.

  • Robust Community Infrastructure

    The HOA provides exceptional value with its own private well water system, road maintenance, and access to 160 acres of private forest hiking trails.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Vintage Structural Age

    Built in 1924, the cabin's century-old infrastructure may require substantial updates to electrical, plumbing, and structural systems to meet modern standards.

  • Insurance Complexity

    Located in a dense forest area, securing affordable fire insurance can be challenging, as indicated by the community's active efforts to negotiate group discounts.

About 465 Blue Jay Canyon Road

MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION!!! Tucked away in the highly coveted, gated community of Dogwood Blue Jay Canyon, this 3BR/2BA stunning vintage cabin sums up the quintessential cabin dream. Surrounded by towering redwoods and pines, it’s hard to see your neighbors’ houses which is VERY RARE in the Lake Arrowhead area, giving you total seclusion. Open the front door to find a large, flat area, with unobstructed views of the woods, exactly what you dream a cabin in the woods should be. Open, exposed beamed ceilings in every room upstairs, wood paneled walls, wood burning brick fireplace, retro style refrigerator and Cove dishwasher (Sub-Zero brand). Truly ideal location, not only does it feel secluded, but you happen to be walking distance to the town of Blue Jay (6-7 minute walk to Jensen’s, banks, post office, shops, restaurants, Starbucks), you wouldn’t even need to drive your car during your getaways. Seasonal running creek right outside the cabin provides the perfectly relaxing background sounds, not to mention so much fun to walk along and explore. The area is rare with a HOA that has its own wells and water system. 160 acres of green belt meanders around each property, providing a private forest feeling. HOA fees include trash services, water from the community’s private wells, road maintenance, along with access to the 160 acres of private hiking trails. Community actively working on getting group insurance discount. Oversized driveway can accommodate several vehicles. MUST SEE!! BONUS: The house comes with a remodeling plan steps away from getting County permit.
