This 1933 original cottage was built in a half-timbered Normandy style, creating a fairytale Tudor home. Truly one of a kind. Descanso is San Diego's backcountry; at an elevation of 3,500 feet it boasts a true four-season experience and is only 40 miles from San Diego. Situated on a third of an acre, this cabin home maintains its original charm with many upgrades and improvements. The focal point of the home is the solid granite rock fireplace in the living room, sourced locally. An airtight wood-burning stove heats the entire cabin for those cool and sometimes snowy winter nights. The bedroom has an adjoining 8x10 walk-in closet with laundry hookups. The galley kitchen leads you to the bathroom that doubles as a mudroom with exterior access. Hints of the past include the grandfathered-in carriage garage that is begging for you to bring your creativity and reimagine it to fit your lifestyle. An abundance of wildlife adds to the natural beauty and character of this pocket community appropriately named Descanso Park. Only a half mile from the southern entrance to Cuyamaca State Park with endless miles of hiking, biking, and riding trails. Also available is the adjoining one-third acre parcel with a paid water meter and services to the property. Ready to build or room to grow.
