Discover the epitome of lakeside mountain living in this charming yet generously scaled turnkey Palisades retreat, set within one of Lake Arrowhead’s most coveted neighborhoods. Enveloped by mature, blossoming trees, the home offers a rare sense of privacy and serenity just moments from the water. A verdant pathway leads to a warm and inviting living space featuring exposed beam ceilings, a stone fireplace, and expansive sliding glass doors that frame views of lush maple trees with seasonal glimpses of the lake.

Ample street-level parking adds to the home’s convenience. Modern upgrades, including air conditioning, a new furnace and ducting system, and smart home features such as security cameras, smart thermostat, and smart locks, ensure comfort and ease of use while preserving the appeal of a sought-after vintage lakeside home. Feel a world away while enjoying a central location near the lake, Cedar Glen, Sky Forest, and The Village—plus just a two-minute walk to Lake Access Trail 9. A rare opportunity to own a tranquil yet connected lakeside haven in the heart of Lake Arrowhead. This home has lake rights and an active short term rental permit.
