Description
TURNKEY BIG BEAR RETREAT — BEAUTIFULLY RENOVATED & READY TO ENJOY! This is the Big Bear property you’ve been waiting for. 461 W Meadow Lane has been extensively refreshed from top to bottom, creating a mountain getaway that feels clean, comfortable and ready to enjoy from day one. The owner has invested approximately $100,000 in improvements, including new flooring, new windows, carpet, fresh interior paint and texture, an updated kitchen with new appliances, and a beautifully remodeled bathroom. Step inside to an open, inviting feel. The spacious downstairs living area features gorgeous exposed wood ceilings and beams that give the property the mountain character everyone comes to Big Bear looking for. The updated kitchen features rich cabinetry, beautiful countertops, stainless-steel appliances and plenty of room for entertaining after a day on the mountain. Upstairs are two exceptionally spacious bedrooms with room for multiple beds or bunk-bed configurations — ideal for larger families, guests or maximizing sleeping space. The home offers two bathrooms, generous living spaces and multiple outdoor areas, including decks for enjoying the mountain air. The location is a huge part of what makes this property special. Situated near Big Bear Airport, the home offers convenient, relatively level access — a major plus during winter. You’re also within easy reach of Big Bear Lake recreation, boating, kayak rentals, biking, hiking, restaurants, shopping and the mountain resorts. Snow Summit and Bear Mountain offer skiing and snowboarding in winter, plus mountain biking, hiking and other activities during warmer months. The property features a large lot with a detached shed/workshop and substantial outdoor space, with future possibilities for a garage or additional improvements, subject to applicable permits and approvals. Whether you’re looking for a full-time mountain home, vacation getaway, second home, or a property to enjoy with family and friends, Meadow Lane offers something increasingly hard to find: a beautifully updated home in an accessible Big Bear location for all four seasons. Ski in the winter. Bike and hike in the summer. Hit the lake, relax on the deck, explore Holcomb Valley, or simply escape the city for the weekend. This isn’t just a cabin you visit once or twice a year — it’s the kind of Big Bear property you’ll actually want to use year-round. Come see it in person!
