Description
Tucked into the mountains of Boulevard, California, this one-of-a-kind, hand-built home offers true legacy craftsmanship you simply can’t recreate today. The home presents an excellent opportunity for the next owner to bring their vision and updates while preserving its timeless craftsmanship and character. Owned by the same family since it was originally constructed in 1966, the residence reflects an era when quality came first. Built by Swiss carpenters with hand-built trusses and no power tools, the craftsmanship and care show throughout. The home was thoughtfully engineered with wiring in conduit, and durable cast iron and copper plumbing with silver soldering—details rarely seen today. Set on an approximately ½-acre parcel with potential to split (buyer to verify), the property offers space, privacy, and opportunity. Surrounded by beautiful mature trees, the setting is peaceful and classic mountain-rural. Warmth and character define the interior. Inside, the residence spans approximately 3,040 sq.ft. between the main floor and basement (1,520sq.ft. fully finished on main floor), and features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, plus a generous bonus/family room—ideal for gatherings, a studio, or a second living area. Enjoy two large fireplaces, one on the main level and another in the bonus room, along with abundant windows that bring in natural light and refreshing mountain breezes. An enclosed porch provides a bright retreat—perfect for painting, reading, or simply enjoying the peaceful views. The kitchen is a standout, featuring custom hand-built wooden cabinetry crafted by Paul Odermatt of Imperial Beach, a Swiss immigrant known for exceptional detail and quality. Odermatt’s dedication to his craft earned him a strong reputation locally, including a notable partnership with Leo Potvin on the construction of St. Charles Church, Convent, and Junior High buildings—a fitting pedigree for cabinetry built to last. An exceptional opportunity to own a beautifully built mountain home with authentic heritage, generous square footage, and land potential in scenic Boulevard. All of this is within the community of Live Oak Springs Resort, with paved-road access for easy year-round convenience. The property is fenced and served by septic, making it a great fit for buyers seeking a mountain home with room to breathe, timeless construction, and a story you can feel the moment you arrive.
