About This Home
Welcome to Sunshine Cottage near Jenkinson Lake in Pollock Pines, California. The recent price adjustment is simply a reminder not to overlook it. The waterfall is flowing and it's time to get the boat and paddle boards ready. Inside you'll find cozy cottage charm, a rare blend of character, and an alternative to cookie-cutter living with room to grow. The 2-bedroom, 1-bath, 999 square foot home of well-utilized living space is all on one floor designed for comfort and ease. Inside, the home features a warm and inviting layout where open beam ceilings add architectural warmth and mountain character, creating a grounded living space anchored by a wood-burning fireplace installed in 2022. The country kitchen showcases five rows of rustic wood creating a massive stunning visual focal point. The dark metal pipes frame the glass baking jars beautifully. The blend of rustic design with everyday functionality makes for good down home cooking. Major updates include a roof replacement (2019), new water heater (2025), and a generator transfer switch installed on the home for added peace of mind. Enjoy slow mornings and evenings unwinding on the back deck overlooking a generous yard framed by towering pines and open skies ideal for entertaining, BBQs, or stargazing. There is also a matching yellow, detached shed. Additional space not included in the square footage includes a partially finished basement with backyard access. Situated on a premium 13,068 square foot lot surrounded by larger custom homes, the property delivers privacy and the flexibility to grow. The large lot offers room to explore adding an ADU, detached garage or workshop. The circular driveway provides plenty of parking, RV access, and boat storage. The home wasn't designed with soaring modern ceilings in mind - instead it offers the warm, comfortable feeling people look for in an original 1957 lake-area getaway. Now the attic with its' expansive headroom is a mechanically prepped shell with an upper level independent exterior entrance, awaiting your custom staircase design. Envision an interior open loft with a spiral staircase or expanded multi-gen living with outside access. Positioned between Sacramento International Airport and Lake Tahoe, the home offers both accessibility and escape into the Sierra Nevada Foothills of El Dorado County. Whether you are looking for a full-time residence, weekend retreat, STR, or any combination, this property delivers a true friendly, mountain town lifestyle.
