A Little Piece of Mountain Living, Right Here in Lake Elsinore! Tucked among towering pines on two acres, this one-of-a-kind handcrafted log cabin offers the charm of a mountain retreat just minutes from Costco, shopping, dining, and freeway access. Built by its original owner in 1981 and lovingly maintained for over four decades, this special property celebrates craftsmanship, simplicity, and rural living. The authentic log construction, inviting covered front porch, and river-rock foundation create an unforgettable first impression. Inside, exposed timber beams, 11-inch-wide wood plank floors, and warm natural wood surround a magnificent hand-stacked stone fireplace (with a heat circulator), the centerpiece of the living room. The 943-square-foot cabin features a cozy loft bedroom, charming kitchen with a Vintage Kenmore Cast Iron electric range, wood cabinetry and countertops, dining area, and bathroom with a vintage clawfoot tub and high-tank toilet. All handcrafted wood furniture conveys with the property! Perched near the highest point of the parcel, the expansive covered front porch overlooks the valley and mountains to the west, offering a peaceful setting for morning coffee and beautiful sunsets. The lovingly cultivated grounds feature a productive orchard with five varieties of avocados, five varieties of citrus, plus apricot, pear, and apple trees. There's ample space for gardening, animal keeping, and outdoor hobbies. Two gated access points, a separate laundry shed, and generous parking for RVs, boats, and recreational toys add versatility. Whether you're searching for a peaceful country residence, or a place to grow your own food and enjoy room to roam, this unique property offers an opportunity that rarely comes along. A home built by hand, and a legacy ready for its next chapter.
