Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1984 (40 years old), the property is well-maintained but largely dated. While it features some recent cosmetic updates like laminate flooring and a newer bathroom vanity, the kitchen remains original with 1980s cabinetry and fluorescent lighting. It avoids a 'Poor' rating as it appears move-in ready without obvious structural defects, but it requires modernization of the kitchen and primary systems to meet current standards.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 9600, living area = 1680.
Perched at the peak of Moonridge Mountain Estates, the property offers exceptional front-row views of Bear Mountain’s Geronimo ski run and the surrounding forest landscape.
The rare long, flat driveway provides easy year-round access and ample space for multiple vehicles, including dedicated room for an RV or boat, which is a premium feature in mountain terrain.
The assigned elementary and middle schools have low performance ratings (2 and 3 respectively), which may deter families prioritizing high-quality local education.
Despite the three-story layout and 1,680 square feet of living space, the home only offers two bedrooms, potentially limiting its appeal for larger families or high-occupancy vacation rentals.
Three-story mountain retreat perched at the peak of prestigious Moonridge Mountain Estates, offering a front-row seat to nature’s grandeur and panoramic views of Bear Mountain’s iconic Geronimo ski run. The top level features two sliding glass doors that open directly onto a expansive deck—perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or stargazing at the Milky Way. Situated on a nearly 10,000-square-foot lot surrounded by mature trees, the property provides an unmatched sense of tranquility and seclusion. A long, flat entry driveway completes the estate grounds, providing plenty of space for several vehicles plus dedicated room for an RV or boat. On the lower level, a sprawling, versatile bonus space with its own private entrance presents an incredible opportunity for customization, making it ideal for a home theater, creative studio, or private guest wing. While you'll feel miles away from it all, you are just minutes from Big Bear’s world-class skiing, hiking, biking, and lake activities.
