Description
Income averaging $5k monthly this home is -Tucked against a backdrop of wide-open wilderness, this updated mountain retreat delivers the kind of setting people come to Big Bear for. Sitting on an oversized corner lot with two APNs and direct access to over 200 acres of untouched land, you get privacy, space, and room to grow—all in one. Inside, the home strikes a clean balance between modern updates and cozy cabin feel. Vinyl flooring runs throughout, a fireplace anchors the living space, and the kitchen has been dialed in with quartz countertops, subway tile, and newer stainless steel appliances. It’s fully furnished, so whether you’re moving in or renting it out, there’s nothing to figure out. The backyard is where this one really wins. Hot tub under the stars, fire pit for late nights, BBQ for easy hosting, and a fully fenced yard with space for kids, dogs, or just breathing room. There’s also RV/boat parking and a powered shed that could easily turn into a game room, studio, or bonus hangout space. The two APNs open the door for future options—build, expand, or split. And if you’re looking at this as an investment, it’s already proven itself with 230+ five-star Airbnb reviews and “Guest Favorite” status. Simple, functional, and set up to enjoy from day one—whether that’s for you or your guests. Owner has an Airbnb Permit.
