About This Home

Handyman Special in Prime Idyllwild Location!

Calling all investors, flippers, and DIY enthusiasts! This home is packed with potential and ready for your finishing touches. Featuring a spacious layout with a large living room and a massive wood-burning fireplace, this diamond in the rough offers a solid foundation to build your dream mountain retreat.

The kitchen and bathroom already boast granite countertops and great cupboard space, with a farmhouse sink and updated faucet already installed. High-end light fixtures and laminate wood flooring are in place—but a little elbow grease will go a long way to bring this beauty to life.

Both bedrooms and the bathroom are generously sized, and the home includes an indoor laundry room with tons of storage. Sitting on a flat 0.25-acre lot, the property offers stunning hillside views from the brick front porch and a roomy side deck—perfect for outdoor dining or entertaining.

Custom fencing surrounds the oversized backyard, and the huge detached garage has space for 2 cars plus a potential workshop. Nestled in a desirable mountain community near downtown Idyllwild, you’re just minutes from charming shops and great restaurants.

Sold AS-IS. With some TLC, this property could be a hidden gem—don’t miss out on this rare opportunity!
