New Cherokee High School district opening Fall 2026! So much value here! Highlights include: Detached garage/barn, soaring ceilings, stone porch and patio, real hardwood floors, multiple fireplaces - including primary bedroom, dual in-law suites, large usable lot - room for a pool, great neighborhood with lake. Set on just over 2 private acres, this custom-built ranch offers 5 bedrooms and 4 baths plus a detached garage or barn. The layout is ideal for in-laws, teens, guests, or multigenerational living.
You’re welcomed through a winding driveway to an elegant home thoughtfully positioned on the lot for maximum privacy. A large detached 32 x 28 garage/workshop sits nearby, ready to be finished to your specifications. Inside the attached main garage, a tiled mudroom keeps everyone organized, and permanent attic stairs make storage access effortless—no more wrestling with pull-down ladders.
Guests enter along a curved sidewalk to a cultured-stone façade and flagstone porch. Inside, soaring ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors create an immediate sense of openness. The living, dining, and kitchen areas flow together beautifully, while a formal living room or office sits conveniently near the entry.
The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a high tray ceiling, a vaulted window, and—yes—a gas-burning fireplace for cozy evenings. Dual walk-in closets lead to a spacious bath with vaulted ceilings, large picture windows over the soaking tub, and separate his-and-hers vanities.
On the opposite side of the home are two additional main-level bedrooms with matching hardwood floors. The secondary bathroom continues the theme of high ceilings with a dramatic vaulted design and oversized window.
From the breakfast room, step onto the oversized deck with recently updated decking. Surrounded by woods, the property offers year-round privacy. The backyard layout is perfect for a future inground pool.
The basement continues the home’s custom feel. Hardwood stairs lead down to a partially finished but highly functional space with its own dedicated heat pump—meaning both levels enjoy independent HVAC systems. Durable high-resin flooring provides easy maintenance and worry-free living. Two spacious bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bathroom and large walk-in closets.
The open kitchen-to-media area downstairs is ideal for a pool table, ping-pong, or a home theater. A charming chippy-wood accent wall adds character, and the electric fireplace with heat creates ambiance. Two flagstone patio entrances—one covered by the deck above—extend the living space outdoors.
Outside, the home's thoughtful placement makes the two acres feel even larger. Exterior materials were chosen for low maintenance, including hard-coat stucco, stone front, Marvin vinyl windows, and PVC trim—virtually maintenance-free.
The neighborhood is a gem, with many residents walking or biking to the fully stocked community lake. Amenities include a basketball court, picnic area with tables and grills, and plenty of space for gatherings. The neighborhood is located just outside the North Entrance to Lake Arrowhead. If desired, a membership to Lake Arrowhead Golf Course is available for purchase.
