Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location & Accessibility: Nestled in the desirable Moonridge area, this property offers a peaceful cul-de-sac setting with level parking and easy year-round access. Its proximity (less than 2 miles) to Bear Mountain, shopping, dining, and recreational paths significantly enhances its appeal.
Turnkey & Income Potential: The cabin comes completely furnished, making it a ready-to-use mountain retreat. Its explicit mention as a 'great short-term rental opportunity' highlights its strong investment potential in the Big Bear market.
Recent Updates & Good Condition: Despite its 1968 build, the property has been 'fully updated' with new exterior paint, dual-pane windows, a newer furnace, and Trex decking, significantly reducing immediate maintenance concerns for a new owner.
Outdoor Living & Recreational Features: The oversized, secluded lot features a hot tub in the backyard and a side yard perfect for a private sledding hill, offering unique and desirable outdoor amenities for mountain living.
Scenic Views & Private Setting: The property boasts mountain, neighborhood, and tree views, providing a quintessential Big Bear experience. Its location at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac among trees ensures a private and serene environment.
Cons
Original Construction Age: While updated, the property's original build year of 1968 means some core structural or system components (e.g., plumbing, electrical beyond the furnace) may still be original, potentially requiring future maintenance or upgrades not covered by recent renovations.
Modest Interior Space: At 1330 sqft, the interior living space is on the smaller side for a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home, which might limit appeal for buyers seeking more expansive or modern open-concept layouts.
Seasonal Maintenance Demands: As a mountain cabin 'nestled among the trees,' the property will require ongoing seasonal maintenance, including snow removal, tree care, and general upkeep specific to a cabin in a natural, snowy environment, which can be a commitment for owners.
