Condition Rating
Good

Built in 2005, this log-style cabin is 19 years old, fitting within the 'Good' category's age range (10-20 years). The kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, which are well-maintained and functional, though the style reflects its build era rather than a recent, cutting-edge renovation. Bathrooms, including the primary suite with a jetted tub and walk-in shower, are also in good condition with appropriate finishes for the home's rustic aesthetic. Overall, the property is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, and all major systems appear functional and well-maintained.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Expansive Mountain Retreat: This beautifully crafted 3,262 sqft log-style cabin sits on a spacious 1.26-acre lot, offering significant living space and privacy nestled among tall pine trees.
Luxurious & Functional Interior: Features include soaring ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace, an open-concept layout, a gourmet kitchen with granite and stainless steel, a primary suite with a jetted tub and fireplace, and a versatile loft with a wet bar.
Turnkey & Income-Generating Potential: The property is fully furnished and explicitly marketed as ready for immediate enjoyment as a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or a lucrative vacation rental.
Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living: Multiple main-level rooms, including the primary suite, kitchen, dining, and living room, offer direct exterior access to the backyard and a spacious deck, enhancing connection with nature.
Prime Big Bear Location: Located in Meadowbrook Estates, it provides peaceful seclusion while being conveniently just 10-15 minutes from Big Bear Lake, ski resorts, hiking trails, and local amenities.

Cons

Specialized Log Cabin Maintenance: The log-style construction, while charming, typically requires specific and potentially higher ongoing maintenance (e.g., sealing, staining) compared to conventional homes.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which might be a consideration for some buyers during warmer periods, despite the mountain climate.
Below-Average Middle School Rating: The assigned Big Bear Middle School has a rating of 3, which could be a drawback for families prioritizing higher-rated public education options.
