Detailed Introduction Of This Home
Presenting a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lake Arrowhead history in this iconic landmark property aka "The Lodge", a 1930 historic residence and property situated on over half an acre, fully gated, with both a main residence and guest cottage, 4 car garage, with additional 25 car parking. Fabulous water and mountain views bound along with gardens and meandering pathways. Graciously setting directly across from Lake Arrowhead Village, Burnt Mill Beach Club, Yacht Club, the LA Resort & Spa, and many popular venues only a short walk away. "The Lodge" was originally built by local German craftsmen and master masons during the 1920's oil boom. It was built for Mr. Tom Cannon, an oil man from Los Angeles, as a hunting lodge for himself and his infamous guests. Since then, it has passed through several ownerships being enjoyed for personal use as well as a once Bed and Breakfast Inn. The current owners acquired the property in 2020 in a state of disrepair with clear intentions to renovate this magnificent Normandy style legend for family without disturbing the architectural integrity. They rolled up their sleeves and proceeded with a passionate labor of love, taking a 2-year process from the inside out, and top to bottom to bring their love to completion. Both the 6 Bedroom main residence and the 2-bedroom ensuite guest cottage, once a carriage house, have been elevated to a stunningly modern level yet still embrace the charm of the era and the original quintessential character this property is known for. All interior and exterior improvements have been meticulously considered. Improvements are high end, energy efficient, and of designer quality including oversized dual pane windows, wide plank flooring, custom tile & lighting, commercial quality appliances, new paint, roofing, heat, air conditioning, and plumbing systems. The Wow factor is truly achieved with the professionally appointed furnishings and decor perfectly curated to provide a total turnkey experience. Currently used as a personal family compound (A STR has been granted and can be reapplied for at transfer), there are not adequate words to describe the brilliant accomplishment made in this home's renovation. It's simply a must see for yourself! A full features list w/inventory are available upon request. Priced to move quickly, this property offers a Dream of a life-time for anyone seeking refuge from the city and a life of pure serene mountain living with great income potential.
