Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1971 (53 years old), the property is significantly dated with original-style wood paneling and a kitchen that appears to be 30+ years old. While the bathroom has been upgraded and the exterior recently painted, the overall interior finishes and likely aged systems place it in the fair category, requiring modernization to meet current standards.
The property includes a rare attached garage, providing highly sought-after secure parking and storage that is uncommon for cabins of this size in the Big Bear area.
Features a recently purchased Echo Spa with a hard cover and a covered patio, offering immediate value for outdoor relaxation and enhancing its appeal as a vacation rental.
Ideally situated minutes from Big Bear Lake, Snow Summit, and Bear Mountain, ensuring excellent access to year-round activities and strong investment potential.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 972, other record living area = 864.
With only one bathroom available, the property may face functional challenges for larger groups or families, potentially limiting its rental occupancy ceiling.
At 972 square feet, the interior living space is relatively small, which may feel restrictive for buyers looking for a more spacious full-time mountain residence.
