GRETA GARBO & JOHN GILBERTS LOVE NEST! They almost certainly stayed here once the 1925 Flesh and the Devil filming ended they autographed the kitchen wall along w/ many others! Located in a beautiful wooded setting w/ tall cedars & oaks. Theres ~ 113 ft of street frontage for this 4-season home. Its a perfect getaway from the May-gray, June-gloom of LA or the sweltering Palm Springs summer. The spacious rustic living rm includes a wood plank ceiling, lrg Anderson dual pane wndws, stone fireplace w/ thick log mantle & redwood wainscoting. Roomy upstairs mstr bdrm has lrg wndws w/ dramatic views & ample closets. The updated kitchen is very functional & features a large fireplace w/ insert. This well-laid-out home also has a 2nd bdrm ~ 240 sqft w/ full bth. Could be used as a mother-in-law suite or as a separate unit w/ its own entrance. In winter, the house stays cozy w/ the fireplaces or 2 radiant very efficient propane heaters. Flooring is mostly stone pattern vinyl, w/ original clear-grain spruce planks upstairs. Theres also an A-shaped storage attic ~160 sqft w/ a pull-down stairway. Outside is an 10x12 storage shed w/ shelves.

Low HOA includes water, side-road snowplowing, & a trash shed. This idyllic property is ~ 1 mi from dwntwn Forest Falls (w/ general store, gift shop, great Mexican restaurant & art gallery). The church, school & post office are ~ 1/2 mi. Youve probably never heard of Forest Falls, because we have no lake. It also doesnt have outrageous tourist traffic. The San Bernardino Natl Forest & Sand-to-Snow Natl Monument surround the community. Only 1 home away from Mill Creek & a hiking trail into the Natl Forest, its ~ a 2 mi drive to view scenic Big Falls (at 500 ft, its the tallest all-year waterfall in SoCal), & + 1/2 mi to Vivian Creek Trailhead to climb Mt San Gorgonio (tallest mtn in SoCal @ 11,503 ft).
