Lot_7_Crest_Forest

Have you been waiting for a great deal on a buildable lot in the mountains of Southern California???... This super easy access building lot is located in the San Bernardino National Forest only an hour and a half from Los Angeles, Newport Beach and the California coastline (Pacific Ocean). This asset is offered to you due to one of our investors recent hardship.

The property features forested privacy situated on near perfect natural terrain for building and accessibility. Utilities (electric, gas, telephone, DSL internet and cable TV) are readily available at the street.

Ideally located directly on Crest Forest Drive, the lot has great access only 1 mile to a home town market, the finest comfort food restaurants and quaint retail shops, yet has a secluded feel of privacy under a canopy of very tall trees and clear blue sky. The front of the property is thick with a natural variety of smaller trees, wild brush and grass with the National Forest and Post Office just walking distance to the right and left.

Pictures tell a thousand words, and unlike those that say "pictures are of the general area", we at Wholesale Land ARE in the area and love living in beautiful Crestline.

Here is the parcel map and an enlarged view showing the lot dimensions.

Lot Features:
This lot has a special feature of being easily accessed from the road and then naturally flattens out to a building area primarily clear of trees; an advantage rarely found giving a ready to build look. Notice the neighbor's cabin in the background was built on the same plateau? The neighbor owns lot 6 (the lot between his lot and this one) and wishes to keep it undeveloped as a buffer between homes. This benefit adds real value without adding any cost! According to the County Assessor, the neighbor's land value has increased by 7 1/2% in the last 5 years...

The smaller trees along the front of the property act as a flora privacy curtain while the tall pines rise high above the land...

The lot dimensions are 29 feet wide by 89 feet deep which exceeds the minimum size (2,500 square feet) required to build a small cabin. The side line setbacks for this lot are 6 feet each side, 15 feet front and 15 feet rear. That allows a building footprint 17 feet wide by 59 feet deep or 1,003 square feet per floor. You can stick build your own cabin or install a manufactured cabin. Did you know that Lowe's offers kit homes that comply with all Local, State and Federal regulations? Here is a picture of a 16 foot wide kit home that fits on this lot...
