Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1992 (34 years old), the property is functional and well-maintained but remains largely dated. The kitchen and bathrooms feature original oak cabinetry and older finishes consistent with its age. While move-in ready for a tenant, it lacks modern renovations to systems and aesthetics, placing it in the 'Fair' category for homes over 20 years old needing cosmetic updates.
The property features genuine Bavarian-Alpine character with vaulted wood-plank ceilings, exposed beams, and dual en-suite bedrooms, offering a highly functional and desirable mountain-lodge aesthetic.
Currently tenant-occupied at $1,550 per month with a market estimate of $2,300, this property presents a clear value-add opportunity for investors looking to capture substantial rental growth.
The oversized garage plus an additional smaller bay provides exceptional storage for mountain essentials like skis, ATVs, and bikes, a premium feature for the Big Bear lifestyle.
The existing lease is significantly under market value, which may limit immediate return on investment for buyers until the current tenancy ends or is renegotiated.
At 4,125 square feet, the lot is relatively modest for the area, which may limit privacy or future expansion opportunities compared to larger mountain parcels.
A custom 2-bedroom, 2-bath Bavarian-Alpine cabin with real Big Bear character the kind you can't fake with a quick remodel and a Pinterest board. Step into abright, open living space with vaulted wood-plank ceilings and exposed beams, anchored by a large brick, wood-burning fireplace wrapped in knotty pine the true mountain-lodge centerpiece (because a "fireplace app" doesn't count). The main level flows seamlessly into an open kitchen with skylights that flood the space with natural light,classic wood cabinetry, a gas range, stainless refrigerator, generous counter space, and a breakfast bar so the cook stays part of the conversation whether it's pancakesafter a powder day or wine by the fire. The layout is sneakily perfect: an en-suite bedroom on the main level plus a second en-suite upstairs, giving everyone privacy. Uptop, you get a spacious open loft that works as an office, den, play area, or extra hangout zone and it opens to its own private balcony with peaceful tree views, ideal formorning coffee and fresh mountain air. Outside is where the cabin lifestyle shows up: a classic front deck built for grilling and lounging, plus fenced front and back yards thatare perfect for dogs, gear, and guilt-free outdoor time. From an investment standpoint, it's currently tenant-occupied at $1,550/month, with market rent estimated around$2,300/month built-in income now with clear upside later. And for true mountain living, the garage setup is a big win: an oversized single garage plus an additional smallerbay, ideal for skis, bikes, snow toys, ATV/golf cart storage, or the legendary Big Bear gear pile that somehow multiplies overnight.Quiet Big Bear City location close to theslopes, the lake, The Village, and the airport but tucked away enough to feel like a getaway, not a tourist theme park. If you've been looking for authentic Alpine style,flexible space, and a value-add rental opportunity with lifestyle baked in, this one's a must-see.
