* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1987 (37 years old), placing it in the dated category. While the home features some recent cosmetic updates like luxury vinyl plank flooring and stainless steel appliances (dishwasher/fridge), the kitchen cabinetry, laminate countertops, and bathrooms appear to be original to the 1980s construction. The exterior shows some wear on the wooden stairs and lattice, and the overall aesthetic requires modernization to meet current market standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8100, living area = 1321.
Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in the desirable Whispering Forest neighborhood, offering a peaceful and private setting that is highly sought after in Big Bear.
The home features classic mountain character with beamed ceilings and a brick fireplace, making it an attractive option for the vacation rental market.
The property only offers 'peek-a-boo' views, which may not meet the expectations of buyers looking for expansive mountain or lake vistas.
The local middle school has a low rating of 3/10, which could be a deterrent for families looking to use the property as a primary residence.
Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Whispering Forest, this three-bedroom, two-bath home offers a comfortable place to enjoy Big Bear. Beamed ceilings and a brick fireplace bring mountain character to the living room, while the spacious kitchen has room for everyday dining. Outside, the fenced backyard offers space to relax or entertain, and the detached two-car garage adds useful parking and storage. Would make for an excellent primary, secondary or vacation rental in the Big Bear area.
