The kitchen offers wood countertops, abundant cabinetry, tile backsplash, pantry, and garden windows, while the living area centers around a cozy wood stove set on a decorative whitewashed hearth. Shiplap accents and beadboard ceilings add warmth and timeless mountain character, while the large fully enclosed front porch provides the perfect place to unwind and take in the sounds of nearby waterfalls and surrounding nature. A fully permitted ~360± sq ft detached guest house thats so cute & cozy with all the improvements was updated in 2017, provides additional accommodations ideal for guests, creative space, or separate vacation rental potential. Recent renovations to both residences include a new roof, durable concrete siding, and energy-efficient mini-split heating and cooling systems, enhancing comfort, efficiency, and long-term durability. A new septic system was installed in 2019 adds further peace of mind. The grounds themselves offer a truly immersive outdoor experience, with approximately 2.5 miles of established private trails winding through the property to a creek, swimming hole, small cave, and multiple natural bouldering areas. A fenced garden, outdoor BBQ area, and firepit create inviting gathering spaces for relaxing evenings under the stars. Additional improvements include a 22' x 28' detached workshop/garage (616 sf), providing ample room for recreation room hobbies, storage, or projects. With its proximity to Yosemite, expansive private trail system, and remarkable natural setting, this property offers exceptional potential as a private mountain sanctuary, income-producing vacation rental, or destination setting for intimate gatherings and special events.

Calling all active, outdoor enthusiasts - this property is for you!!! Designed by a Disney engineer, this home is unique and super fun! From the spacious covered deck atop the home harking to the Swiss Family Robinson days, to the 2.5 miles of established and maintained trails that meander to a creek and swimming hole and small cave, to the several bouldering sites named by the owner, to the giant 80' 2 level tree house, you will never be bored! The home is in good condition with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths with fun woodworking details and custom baths. The kitchen is well appointed with lots of cabinets. The living room is spacious and the enclosed porch lets in the sound of the waterfalls outside. The trails are quite magical, leading all around the 9 acres. Get your workout in the natural environment - no gym needed. The views from atop the treehouse are stunning and 360 degrees! Enter at your own risk, but I did and it was amazing! There is also a nice little studio guest unit on the property. And, there is a fenced garden and 3 ponds (1 with coi, 1 with frogs and 1 designed as a natural pool) all filtered with pumps. This is a special home you will love to see! Call today for a viewing!
