Built in 1957, this cabin retains its original 'timeless mountain living' aesthetic, which translates to significantly outdated features in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen has knotty wood cabinetry, tiled counters, and an antique range/oven. Bathrooms also feature wood paneling and older fixtures. While a mini-split system provides modern comfort, it's a singular update and doesn't constitute an extensive renovation. The property appears maintained but requires substantial cosmetic and functional updates to meet contemporary standards.

Expansive Natural Setting: Situated on a generous 0.52-acre parcel, nestled among mature oak and pine trees, offering privacy, tranquility, and a serene natural environment.
Strategic Accessibility: Conveniently accessed off paved Rocky Pass Rd, minutes to town and I-8, and only 45 minutes to downtown San Diego, balancing secluded retreat with urban access.
High Occupancy Potential: With three bathrooms, a primary suite, and a loft bedroom designed to sleep up to 10, it's well-suited for large families, groups, or as a rental property.
Modern Comfort & Outdoor Living: Equipped with a mini-split system for year-round comfort and a covered front porch perfect for enjoying the crisp air and natural surroundings.

Cons

Dated Kitchen Features: The kitchen includes knotty wood cabinetry, tiled counters, and an antique range/oven, which may require modernization to appeal to contemporary tastes and functionality standards.
Property Age: Built in 1957, the cabin is over 65 years old, suggesting potential for deferred maintenance or the need for updates to infrastructure (e.g., electrical, plumbing) that may not be immediately apparent.
Limited Private Bedrooms: While accommodating many, the property officially has only two bedrooms, with additional sleeping capacity in a loft, which might not suit buyers seeking multiple private sleeping quarters.
