About This Home
Rare Dual-Unit Property with CR Zoning in the Heart of Idyllwild
Welcome to a truly unique opportunity—two homes on one fully usable, fenced .46-acre lot, nestled just a short stroll from the Heart of Idyllwild. With coveted CR zoning the opportunities expand. Please see CR zoning business opportunities and tax benefits with Riverside County.
The main residence is a creatively renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Southern-chic cabin infused with ample charm and character. Custom woodwork, antique accents, and artsy one-off paint finishes set a welcome home tone throughout. Enjoy modern upgrades like forced air heating, solar power on a buy-back program, and new roofing—while still soaking in rustic touches like the wood-burning stove, original wood floors, and a cozy rock fireplace center piece. All bedrooms are smartly separated for enhanced privacy, and the tin-roof-covered entrance into the laundry/mudroom is both practical and delightful—especially during a mountain rain, while the sunroom in front of the cabin is a wonderful feature throughout the seasons. The yard is blessed with apple trees, a cherry tree, lilacs, and bulbs.
Tucked behind the main house is the beautifully remodeled self contained “Lavender Cottage”—a charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath rental unit with its own fenced yard, separate utilities, and designated parking. With a tasteful blend of masculine and feminine finishes, it's ideal for long-term rental income , a guest retreat, or a home-based business.
Both units boast custom interior and exterior paint, remodeled kitchens and bathrooms, better insulation, and thoughtful touches throughout—making this mountain haven ready for you. The ever so gently sloped usable lot features a large circular driveway that's plow-friendly, offering ample parking and effortless year-round access. The yard is blessed with apple trees, a cherry tree, lilacs, and bulbs. Includes a shed, RV electrical is hook-up near the cottage shed. Storage or bike garage below the main house is a plus. There is an additional exterior 220V on main house for spa if desired. Property is on sewer and corners are marked. Enjoy nearby town conveniences with just a short walk from your investment to Idyllwild’s shops, dining, and events.
Whether you're seeking an income-generating property, a live-work setup, to visit and rent, or simply a peaceful mountain lifestyle with the added benefit of CR zoning opportunities, this is a rare find you won’t want to miss.
