Need a CASH buyer for this cute cottage lovingly built from a Craftsman kit in 1971. The beautiful hardwood floors were immediately covered with carpet and not exposed until recently. Home is dated, needs TLC and upgrades but will charm you. From the front deck you can get a peek-a-boo view of Loveland when the lake is full. The full basement, carved out of native granite, is not included in the sq. footage but will tempt your imagination. PLEASE SEE SUPPLEMENT!
The grounds are terraced with several older outbuildings including workshops, sheds, garages and outhouse. There is an older trailer on site that was previously rented, also needs fixing. Property sold as is. You will enjoy the abundant wildflowers, vegetation, mature trees and rock formations. This area is habitat for many animals including, but not limited to deer, coyote, bobcat, fox, hawks, wild turkeys, quail, rodents and snakes, including rattlesnakes. Please be mindful, do not go on property without listing agent. Off Interstate 8 take the Descanso/Japatul Rd exit for 13 miles, property will be on your left. From the Tavern Rd. Exit it's only 6.2 miles to the property.
