Tucked away on a side street adjacent to the privacy and seclusion of the San Bernardino National Forest is this 2,122 sq. ft. 3 bedroom, two and a half bath Victorian style home. Enter off an old fashioned covered wraparound porch into a sizeable entryway. This main floor features an inviting kitchen with propane powered cook top stove set in its own island, a garden window in the kitchen countertop and all set off by the bay window looking out on the neighborhood and national forest beyond! A separate dining area is provided between the kitchen and wood burning stove dominated living room. Up a wide stairway half way up is a floor to ceiling book case covering the whole wall to display all your books and collectables. All 3 bedrooms are up here including the master bedroom with access to the upper wood deck, its own set of bay windows letting in the morning sunshine from the East. The Master bath is also the access to a good size walk in closet and to an unfinished room suitable for storage or a suite or library or yet another bedroom if desired! Outside a 2 car garage also provides an all weather entry into the house (appreciated in the Fall and Winter months. The side and rear yards are independently enclosed and fenced unobtrusively. Landscaping is natural, no grass except for the Spring and Fall widespread use of Daffodils, green ferns everywhere and Mountain lilacs. And the current owners favorite - a large Pink Dogwood gracing the entryway. The roof was replaced with a new one 2 years ago. The town has its own post office, Country Store and restaurant one block away from the house. All the above plus access to miles of hiking trails, hunting, bicycling plus trout fishing on he Santa Ana River and Jenks Lake. Big Bear Lake and the other mountain communities are 32 miles further up the highway. All said, you can’t get further away from flatland civilization and all of its people and congestion and still be in Southern California!!!
