A fantastic fairy tale property, picturesque, enchanting, magical and majestic best describes The Lake Arrowhead Chateau.

A fairy tale is a type of short story that typically features European folklore fantasy characters such as dwarfs, elves, fairies, giants, gnomes, mermaids and the like and are distinguished from other types of stories in that they, generally, are explicitly moral tales that tell a tale of something blessed with unusual happiness; thus the fairy tale ending common to all.

They diverge from legend in that they are fantasy as opposed to suggestively real. The Lake Arrowhead Chateau crosses that boundary in that it is both an image of a fairy tale property host to, possibly, Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs, and a real thing that can be purchased and occupied.

Specifically, it is a single family residence situated on lush wooded grounds spread across a lot approximately 1.68 acres in size, mostly flat with a down slope at the rear. It was built in only 2004 by master builder Ron Dolman of the Dolman Construction Company of Lake Arrowhead as his own residence (imagine the detail). The Dolman Construction Company is rated in the top 10% of more than 335,500 contractors in California.

*Square Foot Range
It is estimated that if you add the two houses, the main house and the guest house, plus the basement and the garage together that the size of the property is approximately 8,052 square feet overall. Then, however, add the bonus room over the garage which is said to be the same size as the garage and the overall square footage comes to 9,120 sq. ft. There is no documentation for this. The original owner said the house is 8,240 square foot in size, thus the number stated above. The tax record shows 6,407 sq. ft. and is likely the house alone. These numbers all are approximate and not guaranteed by broker. No other reference is available at this time.
The Homestead / Cedar Ridge
The Seven Gables Estate is located in the prestigious community of Cedar Ridge located on the south shores of Lake Arrowhead. It is home to all custom-built residences ranging in price up to over $5/Million in sale-values since 2008. This testifies to the strong value-position the community maintains among both local and out-of-area buyers with means.

The luxurious, gated community made up of wide, clear roadways winding through custom estates features two supermarkets, convenience stores, realty offices (of course) and a variety of small shops. Notably, it’s a beautiful place to own and a great place to live. The Seven Gables Estate: home to the good life.

Spending time and living “up here” is a way of life, not just a change of scenery. Both the private lake and community offer a safe, peaceful, elite environment.

The Lake Arrowhead Development company was formed in 1960 by three developers from Los Angeles. They built the present day 18 hole golf course and club house and subdivided 18 residential tracts. In 1967 the Lake Arrowhead Development Company merged with the Boise Cascade Corporation and additional subdivision properties were created.

After several turnarounds of one kind or another common to the growth of a community, the property owners in Arrowhead Woods bought Lake Arrowhead in October of 1975 from Boise, and Boise sold their remaining holdings in Lake Arrowhead to Metropolitan Advertising Agency in 1977. In 1978 a group of investors headed by developer George Coult bought the Village and Lodge properties. In April of 1979 a Burn To Learn exercise was conducted by the Lake Arrowhead Fire Protection District with the San Bernardino County Fire Departments and the Air Corps taking part. All structures in the Village, quaint but aging, were burned in this controlled burn except the original dance pavilion, post office and bank. The beautiful new Village was then built.

Lake Arrowhead Village is the area’s main hot spot for both visitors and locals. With a variety of unique fashion boutiques, outlet stores, restaurants, and a supermarket, The Village provides excellent shopping and dining before heading back to your cozy mountain top residence.

Lake Arrowhead is an unincorporated community and a census-designated place (CDP) in the San Bernardino Mountains of San Bernardino County, California, within the San Bernardino National Forest, surrounding the Lake Arrowhead Reservoir.

The population of the CDP was estimated at 12,424 in the 2010 census.
