Experience the best of mountain living with this cozy gambrel in the Whispering Forest area of Big Bear City, right on the edge of the national forest! Could starting your next adventure be any more convenient? This spot has amazingly easy access to the boat launch, ski slopes, hiking trails (including the epic Pacific Crest Trail), restaurants, shops, and even the post office. Imagine pulling up to your new home or vacation investment property with those tall, beautiful evergreen trees rising above you in greeting. The open beams and natural, knotted-pine ceiling inside provide a cozy atmosphere to revive your soul and make great memories. Enjoy a warm fire in the stone fireplace while taking in the mountain view from the living room. A full bathroom upstairs and one downstairs make it easier to freshen up after all that outdoor fun. The laundry room is conveniently located upstairs with the bedrooms and also offers some extra storage space. Above the garage, there is an unfinished 3rd bedroom that’s over 400 square feet. A permit was pulled when the work was started, and with a new permit, the 3rd bedroom could be finished, adding substantial value to the property both for future resale and for vacation rental potential. With over 11,000 square feet of land, it’s worth looking into building an ADU or expanding the existing house further. You’ll enjoy the convenience of the circle driveway, direct garage access from the house, and the motorized garage opener. Two decks with built-in benches and a large, flat yard offer plenty of space for parties and other gatherings both large and small. Make sure you check out the video and the 3D tour. Welcome home!
