This California Cabin is a Tiny Treasure

Originally built in the 1940s, the 432-square-foot haven proves simplicity never goes out of style.

Nestled in an idyllic oak grove in Topanga Canyon, California, this petite, 432-square-foot cabin proves some things truly are timeless. The one-bed, one-bath retreat was originally built in the 1940s and has since been thoughtfully updated with new plumbing, new electric, wide plank floors and new windows. But look around, and hints of the simple life—a no-frills kitchen setup, a cozy wood-burning stove— firmly cement the cabin’s rustic appeal. Just outside, an accessory building makes for the perfect office or studio. Just down the road, hiking trails lead off into the enchanted wilderness of Topanga State Park. For one lucky buyer, this place really is a fairytale cabin in the woods.
