First Time Ever on the Market! Architect-Designed Mountain Retreat Designed and built by its owner—an architect—as his family's personal residence, this custom-crafted 3-bedroom, 2-bath home showcases exceptional quality, thoughtful design, and timeless mountain character. Every detail reflects pride of ownership and craftsmanship rarely found in today's homes. Rich Douglas Fir hardwood flooring enhances the main living areas, complemented by durable tile in one bathroom and elegant granite tile in the other. Abundant dual-pane windows fill the home with natural light while providing energy efficiency and year-round comfort. The spacious kitchen opens seamlessly to the generous dining area, creating an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. Two wood-burning fireplaces—one in the dining room and another in the living room—offer warm gathering places during every season. Two bedrooms are already prepared for the future installation of a potbelly or Franklin stove, adding even more character and flexibility. Additional conveniences include an attached garage, washer and dryer, and a Generac backup generator, providing comfort and peace of mind year-round. Nestled in a peaceful forest setting on a wide, quiet street, this home offers privacy while placing outdoor recreation just moments away. Enjoy fishing, hiking, and the natural beauty of Jenks Lake, with Big Bear Lake and Southern California's premier skiing just a scenic drive up Highway 38. Despite its tranquil mountain setting, the home is only about 15 miles from Redlands with convenient access to the I-10 Freeway, making commuting surprisingly easy. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend escape, or vacation retreat, this one-of-a-kind home offers a rare combination of architectural distinction, quality craftsmanship, and mountain serenity. Homes of this caliber seldom become available—and this exceptional property is being offered for the very first time. Photos have been Virtually staged or Virtually enhanced.
