Inside, you'll find approximately 780 square feet of living space featuring 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a practical floor plan that flows comfortably between the living room, dining area, and kitchen. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or investment opportunity, this home offers a solid foundation with plenty of potential to make it your own. The low-maintenance yard allows you to spend less time on upkeep and more time enjoying everything Big Bear has to offer. There's ample parking and a convenient rear storage area for your tools, bikes, outdoor gear, or seasonal equipment. Located near Erwin Ranch Park and surrounded by hiking, biking, and outdoor recreation opportunities, you'll have easy access to the mountain lifestyle right outside your door. If you've been searching for an affordable mountain getaway with a little extra breathing room, this could be the one you've been waiting for.
