No HOA fees and low property taxes too. Hilltop retreat with breathtaking 360-degree views — from the San Bernardino Mountains to the northeast to the valley’s twinkling city lights below. Perched at 2,900-foot elevation with its own micro-climate that brings slightly cooler temps in the summer and making this home a true sanctuary of peace and nature in Upper Yucaipa’s tranquil hills. Located in the Yucaipa Wildlife Corridor: enjoy regular deer sightings and the seasonal beauty of stargazing the Milky Way. The home has top-of-the-line Andersen Windows and is filled with natural light and scenic views from nearly every room!

A versatile downstairs office with sliding barn doors easily converts into a fourth bedroom. Upstairs, the remodeled bathrooms feature granite countertops and modern cabinetry. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and direct access to an expansive deck perfect for enjoying serene views. Thoughtfully upgraded with durable Hardie cement board siding, updated plumbing (2013), a newer HVAC system (2012). Nearly half an acre with a flat pad in the backyard (accessible by walking on the 6-foot-wide trail) that is ideal for a future ADU guest home, workshop, horse corral, or garden area. Zoned for horses. Drought-tolerant landscaping, decorative pavers in backyard, low-maintenance turf front yard, and a mini orchard with 50 fruit trees all on an automated drip sprinkler system.
