Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1979, this property is aged and shows signs of being outdated, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen features original or very old white cabinets with decorative decals, laminate countertops, and older white appliances, along with carpet flooring which is generally undesirable in a kitchen. The bathroom has a dated vanity, a basic medicine cabinet, and a shower/tub combo with highly outdated swan-motif sliding glass doors. Throughout the home, the carpet appears worn and dated, and light fixtures are older styles. While the property appears maintained and functional, it requires significant cosmetic updates to meet current standards and appeal.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Desirable Location: Situated in a peaceful Erwin Lake neighborhood in Big Bear, offering year-round convenience and access to recreational activities.
Rustic Charm & Character: The classic gambrel-style cabin features appealing elements like beamed ceilings and a wood-burning rock fireplace, enhancing its mountain aesthetic.
Practical Accessibility: A level, fenced lot with concrete parking ensures easy, year-round access, which is a significant advantage in a snowy climate like Big Bear.
Investment Potential: Described as a 'solid investment opportunity' with historical sales data indicating consistent value appreciation in the Big Bear market.
Functional Layout: The property offers an eat-in kitchen and spacious bedrooms, providing a comfortable and efficient living space for its size.
Cons
Property Age: Built in 1979, the property is over 40 years old, which may suggest dated systems, finishes, or potential for future maintenance requirements.
Limited Bathroom Count: With only one bathroom for two bedrooms, it may not meet the needs of all potential buyers or larger groups, potentially affecting its appeal for families or short-term rentals.
Compact Size: At 1008 sqft with a 2400 sqft lot, the property offers a relatively compact living space and a small outdoor area, which might be a limitation for some buyers seeking more room.
