One of the last classic log cabin homes in Uplifters Ranch? Check out this week’s Friday Find. FF- Uplifters Ranch
Tucked away in Rustic Canyon in Santa Monica, Uplifters Ranch is one of the most fascinating hidden neighborhoods in Los Angeles.
The enclave was originally created as a country retreat for the Uplifters, a men’s social club founded in 1913.
The group originally met at the Los Angeles Athletic Club, but in 1920 they relocated to Rustic Canyon, transforming the area into a rustic getaway complete with a clubhouse, recreational facilities, and small cottages for members.
Today, that original clubhouse is known as the Rustic Canyon Recreation Center.
Members of the club were allowed to lease lots for the grand price of $100, creating a tight-knit community centered around art, friendship, and camaraderie.
Over the years, many prominent figures were associated with the club, including Will Rogers, Walt Disney, Clark Gable, and Charlie Chaplin.
This particular property blends historic charm with modern sophistication.
Built in 1924, it remains one of the last homes in the area that still features a classic log cabin exterior.
The single-story residence offers 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and approximately 2,700 square feet of living space, situated on nearly four-tenths of an acre.
Inside, the home features an open floor plan with floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing natural light to flood the living spaces.
A dramatic double-sided river rock fireplace connects the living room with the chef’s kitchen and family room, creating a warm and inviting central gathering space.
The family room overlooks the backyard, where you’ll find mature trees and a sparkling pool, creating a peaceful retreat just moments from the beach.
This truly is a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind home in one of Los Angeles’ most magical hidden neighborhoods.
This historic Rustic Canyon home is offered for $6,995,000.
