Property is extensive renovation needed.
The property was built in 1927 (97 years old) with no mention of recent renovations to the kitchen, bathroom, or major systems (HVAC/Electric). The exterior and grounds show significant deferred maintenance and excessive debris, indicating the structure likely requires a total rehabilitation to be safely habitable.
Ideally situated just 25 minutes from Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead, this property offers excellent proximity to premier ski resorts and mountain recreation while remaining close to local amenities.
The seller's willingness to consider carrying the loan with a large down payment provides a significant advantage for buyers who may face challenges with traditional mountain property financing.
The 5,730-square-foot lot provides a spacious and private outdoor setting with mature trees, offering a true cabin experience and more land than many properties at this price point.
At only 660 square feet with a single bedroom, the compact interior layout may limit the property's appeal for families or those seeking a more versatile living space.
Built in 1927, the property's age suggests that significant updates to major systems or structural components may be necessary to meet modern building standards and efficiency.
