Description
Exceptional pride of ownership shines throughout this beautifully maintained mountain retreat. Owner-occupied and lovingly cared for over the past 20 years, this turnkey home has been extensively upgraded and is ready for its next chapter. Recent improvements include a new roof, new front and rear decks, fresh interior and exterior paint, and attractive paver enhancements to both the driveway and outdoor living areas. The upgraded kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a distinctive copper-style ceiling, Viking range, new flooring, and ample space for gathering with family and friends after a day of mountain adventure. The spacious primary bath has been thoughtfully remodeled, while additional recent upgrades include a new water heater and clothes washer. Outside, the fully landscaped grounds create a welcoming setting with mature plantings, a larger storage shed, and a mid-sized hothouse for gardening enthusiasts looking to grow flowers, vegetables, or simply enjoy a little mountain homesteading. The home's warm and inviting floor plan offers comfortable living year-round, whether you're seeking a full-time residence, weekend escape, or vacation property. Located in one of Big Bear's desirable neighborhoods, you'll enjoy convenient access to shopping, restaurants, the Village, the Convention Center, hiking and biking trails, ski resorts, and all the recreation that makes Big Bear a year-round destination. Rarely does a property combine this level of care, quality upgrades, and prime location. Move-in ready and impeccably maintained, this is the kind of mountain home buyers hope to find but seldom do.
