Condition Rating
Fair

The property consists of two houses. The main log-style house, built in 2006, is generally well-maintained with desirable features like in-floor radiant heat, laminate flooring, and a Jacuzzi tub. However, its kitchen features older white appliances and rustic knotty pine cabinets, which, while functional, are dated and do not align with current 'gourmet' standards. The second cabin is explicitly described as having 'unlimited potential,' indicating it requires substantial repairs or renovations to be fully functional and appealing. Therefore, while the main house is in good condition for its age, the overall property requires minor updates in the main kitchen and significant investment in the second cabin, placing it in the 'Fair' category.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 27965, living area = 2605.
Dual Income/Living Potential: Two distinct residences on one oversized lot offer exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living, vacation rentals, or a live-in/rent-out strategy.
Prime Big Bear Location: Walking distance to the Village and close proximity to Snow Summit, the lake, restaurants, and shopping enhances desirability and rental appeal.
Expansive & Functional Lot: An oversized 0.642-acre lot, fully fenced with separate gated entrances, provides ample space for recreation, vehicle storage (RV/boat), and potential expansion.
Modern Main Residence Amenities: The newer log-style home (built 2006) features high-end amenities including in-floor radiant heat, a gourmet kitchen, river rock fireplace, Jacuzzi tub, and an attached two-car garage.
Short-Term Rental & Lake Access Opportunity: Strong potential for short-term rental income, complemented by the unique option to purchase a large, secure dock slip at Pine Knot Dock Club.

Cons

Second Cabin Requires Investment: The older 'true Cabin' is noted as having 'Unlimited Potential,' suggesting it likely requires significant renovation or updates to maximize its value and appeal.
Absence of Rental Income History: No historical income data is provided for short-term rentals, which may require prospective investors to conduct more extensive due diligence for financial projections.
Dock Not Included: The valuable dock slip, while available for purchase, is a separate transaction, adding an additional cost for buyers seeking direct lake access and enhanced rental amenities.
