Description
Nestled in the highly desirable Boulder Bay neighborhood, this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat captures the timeless charm of a true Big Bear cabin. Originally built in 1948, this classic getaway sits on an oversized street-to-street lot of more than 1/4 acre and offers beautiful lake views from the expansive rear deck as well as through the home's windows. The cabin has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its authentic mountain character. Features include upgraded dual-pane windows, attractive chinked log exterior siding, a newer composition roof, laminate flooring, modern appliances and quartz countertop in the kitchen, stacker washer/dryer unit and a high-tech bidet toilet in the upstairs bathroom. The warm and inviting interior provides the quintessential cabin feel that Big Bear buyers seek. Outside, you'll find abundant level parking, a newer storage shed, and a large rear deck perfectly positioned to enjoy the lake views and mountain setting. Furnishings are negotiable, making this a fantastic opportunity for a turnkey vacation home, or personal mountain escape. Rarely does a property combine vintage Big Bear charm, modern upgrades, generous parking, lake views, and a prime Boulder Bay location. This is truly a special cabin that stands apart from the rest.
