MLS# 226071603 - 467 Skyline Drive, Arnold, CA 95223

Tucked beneath towering pines in the Sky High Ranch community, this storybook off-grid tiny cabin is the real deal a true escape in the heart of Highway 4 ski country, minutes from Bear Valley Mountain and the Ebbetts Pass Scenic Byway. Steps from a private lake and bordering the quiet of Stanislaus National Forest, it's the kind of place that's hard to find and even harder to leave. Inside, reclaimed wood walls and warm light give the home a hand-built, lived-in soul. The main level opens to a bright, compact living and kitchen space wrapped in big windows that pull the forest right in. Up the ladder, a cozy sleeping loft tucks beneath the gabled roofline the kind of nook that makes a snowy night feel like a luxury. A fully functional full bathroom includes a flush toilet, stainless sink, shower, and on-demand hot water. Out back, a vintage clawfoot soaking tub sits on its own deck, plumbed and ready for a long soak under the pines a true high-country luxury. Engineered for genuine independence: this is a self-sufficient off-grid property, with a generator included and a state-of-the-art, high-performance Orenco wastewater treatment system already in place a serious upgrade over a standard rural setup. The home sits in FEMA Flood Zone X (minimal flood risk), on a prime parcel surrounded by granite boulders, manzanita, and old-growth pine. Whether you're after a turnkey weekend basecamp, a high-country rental, or a quiet full-time hideaway near some of California's best skiing and alpine lakes, this one delivers character you simply can't build new. *Disclosure: Some images digitally altered to reflect removal of the front & side deck and steps.
