Forest-backed Crestline retreat with secret room and artistic touches-designed to live like a single-story. The main level holds the open living/dining/kitchen core plus all three bedrooms and two baths on one level, separated by only a few interior steps for easy daily flow. Expansive windows frame protected woods; a bay window seat beside the rock fireplace sets a calm mountain backdrop. Beyond the living area, discover a hidden ~500-sf bonus room with built-in bunks, lounge space, and a secret walk-out to the yard-ideal for games, future theater, or creative studio. Low-maintenance outdoor living features hardscape patios and a custom rock terrace with built-in seating and electrical-planned with reduced vegetation and open zones consistent with defensible-space minded design (buyer to verify local fire guidelines). The sculpted tree-trunk wildlife carving nods to the surrounding National Forest setting. Practical perks include an attached 2-car garage, generous multi-car/RV parking, a Kohler whole-house generator (2021), and durable Speed Queen laundry. Set on a county-maintained road for added reliability and access, with no HOA. Approx. 1.5 mi to Lake Gregory Regional Park and beaches, ~1.3 mi to Goodwin's Market, ~1.5 mi to Higher Grounds Coffee House, and ~2.0 mi to Sycamore Ranch Winery and Cidery for local wine and cider tastings. Includes 3D tour and floor plan. A distinctive mountain home where forest views, flexible bonus space, and low-upkeep hardscape meet everyday comfort. Escape the ordinary and live where the forest meets fine bespoke design combined with a rare lifestyle. You'll be glad you did.
