Description
Extensively renovated 2-bedroom Moonridge cabin situated on two adjoining parcels totaling approximately 5,000 sq. ft., offering the perfect opportunity to complete the finishing touches while enjoying the benefits of major infrastructure upgrades already in place. This charming mountain retreat has undergone an extensive renovation, including new PEX plumbing, new ABS drain lines, upgraded 125-amp electrical service, recessed lighting, insulation in the exterior walls and downstairs ceiling, vinyl siding with underlayment, and a newer roof (approximately 15 years old). The downstairs showcases beautiful knotty pine tongue-and-groove walls and ceilings, creating the warm mountain ambiance buyers are looking for. The kitchen features newer appliances, including a range and dishwasher, and the sale includes a new water heater (never used), bathroom fixtures, additional finish materials, and most furnishings. The bathroom remains unfinished, allowing the next owner to customize the final design to their own taste while avoiding much of the costly infrastructure work already completed. Situated on two parcels totaling approximately 5,000 square feet, this property offers additional outdoor space, privacy, and flexibility rarely found in cabins of this size. Whether you're looking for a personal mountain getaway, vacation home, or investment opportunity, this is a chance to finish a thoughtfully renovated cabin without starting from the beginning. Don't miss this unique opportunity to add your personal finishing touches and create your ideal Big Bear retreat.
