About This Home

Tucked away in the heart of the mountains, this 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath cabin is calling your name! It's updated, spacious, and full of possibilities. Whether you're dreaming of a peaceful escape, a full-time hideaway, or an income-boosting vacation rental, this 2,424 sq. ft. gem is ready to welcome you. Nestled near Sequoia Woods Country Club & Golf Course and just a short distance from the Blue Lake Springs Recreation Center, you'll have access to a pool, tennis courts, and two beautiful lakes. If you're feeling adventurous, explore the local wineries in Murphys, the stunning Lake Alpine, or nearby hiking trails, rivers, and reservoirs. You're just 30 minutes away from the slopes at Bear Valley Ski Resort, making this cabin the perfect year-round retreat for winter sports enthusiasts. Step inside to an open layout, with a beautifully remodeled kitchen featuring granite countertops, sleek stainless steel appliances, and elegant recessed lighting. Whether you're cooking up a storm or sharing stories over a glass of wine, this space is perfect for making lasting memories. The main level offers two comfy bedrooms and a full bath, plus a dedicated laundry room - because even mountain life needs fresh socks! Downstairs, you'll find a spacious rec room area, along with three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a half bath. Stay comfortable year-round with two newly installed mini-splits (one on each level) for efficient heating and cooling - remotely controlled for ultimate ease. When the mountain air turns crisp, curl up by the gas stove. Plus, a transfer switch has been installed, allowing the future owner to easily add a generator for peace of mind, no matter what nature brings. Step onto your expansive redwood deck, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and take in the peaceful forest views. Bonus perk? This charming retreat isn't just a cozy escape - it's a proven income earner! The current owners have lovingly used it as a vacation rental, bringing in nearly $50K last year. Whether you're sipping coffee at sunrise or stargazing with a cozy blanket, this is the mountain magic you've been searching for. Your dream cabin is waiting - will you answer the call?
