Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1934, this 90-year-old cabin exceeds the 30-50 year threshold for major renovations. While the listing notes newer exterior paint and forced-air heat, the interior remains in a highly dated state with original-style built-ins, old carpeting, and linoleum flooring. Based on the age and visible interior condition, the property requires a full rehab of the kitchen, bath, and finishes to meet modern standards.
Situated in the peaceful Fawnskin area on the 'quiet side' of the lake, the property offers immediate access to the National Forest, hiking trails, and local wildlife viewing.
This 1934 cabin retains its original Big Bear charm with a cozy fireplace and classic mountain aesthetic, providing a quintessential getaway experience.
The generous 5,500-square-foot lot includes two storage sheds and a basement area, offering significant outdoor space and room for mountain gear rarely found in smaller cabins.
At only 540 square feet with a one-bedroom layout, the interior space is very compact and may not accommodate families or those requiring a home office.
Given the 1934 construction date, the property may require more frequent maintenance or future upgrades to older systems compared to modern builds.
