Built in 2007, the property combines scale, quality construction, and thoughtful updates in one of Big Bear’s most desirable neighborhoods. Designed with a reverse floor plan, the upper level showcases vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, expansive windows, and an open great room that captures natural light and mountain views. The living area centers around a fireplace and built-ins, while the adjacent dining space and entertainer’s kitchen flow seamlessly together. The remodeled kitchen features abundant counter space, dual islands with extra wash sink and breakfast bar seating, updated cabinetry, and a layout ideal for hosting gatherings. The primary suite is also located on the upper level and offers its own fireplace, deck access, and a spacious bath with dual vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower.

Outdoor living is a true highlight, with a long covered deck framing mountain and ski slope views and creating a natural extension of the main living space. The fenced yard includes a private hot tub and fire pit area, while the lower deck offers additional access to the backyard. Situated on a 10,710 square foot corner lot with level topography, the property provides generous parking, and a two-car attached garage.
