If you live in Big Bear and need a larger home, or if you live “down the hill” and are in search of a 4-seasons vacation home away from SoCal traffic and congestion, then this property may be the one for you…Just 4 miles from the Big Bear Ski Slopes and all that Big Bear has to offer. ~~~Almost 2,000sf of space (including ~220sf in the finished room above the garage and the loft/hobby alcove). Situated just a couple blocks from adventurous hiking trails, this versatile 2-story home offers comfort and charm in a quiet semi-rural setting away from the crowds and traffic. A view to the south renders Sugarloaf Mountain, and Bear Mountain ski summit can be seen to the southwest.~~Step inside to a warm layout with high ceilings throughout, including granite countertops in the upgraded kitchen and bathrooms. The dining room opens to a small-but-cozy back deck for BBQs and lifting a few cold ones.~~~The front yard includes an apple, pear, and cherry tree offering both beauty and seasonal fruit harvests. The south-facing front porch and driveway ensure great sunlight year-round, especially helpful in winter months to help melt the snow and ice.~~A large driveway provides plenty of parking, and the finished 2-car attached garage is loaded with shelving for storage or workshop use. The fully fenced, low maintenance, front and back yards offer security for pets, kids, or garden projects.~ There is a heated, carpeted, and finished Guest room above the garage, with a full bath and external staircase—convenient for guests, hobby room, game room, extra bedroom, or an office. This guest room is not included in the overall 1,725sf of the home–truly a “Bonus room”. ~~ And don’t miss the “Up-Up” loft with inside stairs from bedroom #3, this loft is not included in the square footage of the home, but makes a great unfinished Hobby room.
