About This Home
Nestled within the coveted enclave of Fern Valley, this bespoke contemporary lodge offers an unparalleled fusion of modern design and natural splendor. Set on an expansive acre adorned with pines, firs, manzanita, cedar, and 2 types of oak, the residence provides sweeping forest vistas to Strawberry Creek and the majestic Tahquitz Rock. Beyond its fully gated and fenced perimeter lies a sanctuary of sophistication. The main residence features three meticulously designed bedrooms and three bathrooms, complemented by a fourth bathroom in the detached multi-vehicle garage and workshop - a harmonious blend of luxury and practicality. Encircling the home, a wrap-around porch invites moments of serenity, framing the ever-changing tapestry of mountain views. The grand foyer, illuminated by clerestory windows, leads into a voluminous living room where vaulted beamed ceilings, skylights, and a dual-sided wood-burning fireplace converge to create an ambiance of warmth and grandeur. Bamboo flooring and antique artisan-crafted wooden built-ins underscore the home's commitment to natural elegance. At the heart of the residence, the gourmet kitchen offers exquisite stone countertops and a butcher block island with an integrated sink, catering to culinary enthusiasts. A spacious walk-in pantry and adjacent laundry room offer ample storage, ensuring both form and function. The owner's suite serves as a private retreat, featuring a secluded deck, generous dressing room and closet space, and a spa-inspired bathroom complete with a picture window and a Japanese soaking tub, offering a tranquil escape in nature. Guest suites are thoughtfully appointed with large corner windows, walk-in closets, and en-suite bathrooms, ensuring comfort and privacy for visitors. An original Jim Marsh AIA and constructed by renowned builder Terry Griner in 2005 with meticulous attention to detail, this residence has long been celebrated as one of Idyllwild's premier properties and is ideal for full-time living or high-end vacation rental potential.
