Description

SURROUNDED BY NATURE. A stunning house with beautiful views from every room. On a cul-de-sac in upper Fern Valley, this 1997 custom home is sited in harmony with the property's striking natural setting. The cathedral ceilinged great room, with floor to ceiling ledge-stone fireplace, frames through a wall of multi-level windows famous Lily Rock and surrounding National Forest across Tahquitz Creek. A midcentury style kitchen features spacious cabinets and high-end dishwasher, gas cooktop, built-in microwave, Sub Zero refrigerator, and new wall oven and range hood. The house's multi-level design has a private bedroom and bath on each level with individual decks and distinct views. The spacious main bedroom's many windows frame Lily Rock on one side while a home office area overlooks Suicide Rock on the other. An energy saving on demand hot water system services the entire house, including the primary bath with marble shower and hot tub. There is a spacious separate laundry room and an attached single car garage with workshop and pantry areas. Finally, a large roof top deck has spectacular daytime views of Lily Rock and the forest, and dark starry skies at night.
