The story
- Pool
You may think you know San Bernardino. Then you arrive here. High above the valley, the city gives way to open hillsides, sweeping mountain views and a horizon that seems to go forever. Built in 2020 and positioned along the ridgeline on an approximately 16,000-square-foot lot, this four-bedroom, three-bath home takes full advantage of its remarkable setting. From morning light across the mountains to the city glowing below after dark, the view isn't something you occasionally noticeit's part of the experience of living here. Inside, the open-concept floor plan brings the living, dining and kitchen spaces together, creating an inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is anchored by a large quartz-topped center island, stainless steel appliances and generous cabinetry. A large dedicated laundry room adds valuable storage and workspace. Upstairs, the primary suite becomes its own escape with a soaking tub, dual vanities, walk-in closet and private balcony overlooking the surrounding hills and valleya perfect place for morning coffee or a quiet end to the day. And then there's the pool. Set apart from the home and tucked higher into the hillside is an outdoor retreat that feels almost like discovering a second property. Follow the path up the ridge and you're greeted by a custom cocktail pool, gas fire bowls and a covered lounge area surrounded by sweeping views. This isn't simply a pool in the backyard. It's a destination. Spend an afternoon in the water, gather around the fire as the sun goes down, or settle beneath the covered patio as the lights begin appearing across the valley below. With open hillside surrounding the retreat and no home immediately behind it, the setting delivers a sense of separation that's increasingly difficult to find in Southern California. And yet you're close to CSUSB, hiking and outdoor recreation, with convenient access to the 210 and 215 freeways. Come for the house. Stay for the view. And discover a side of San Bernardino you may never have known existed.
