1971 Fern Lane, Big Bear City, CA 92314

your 4-season playground, about a 5-minute walk, ride or roll from home. Head out with the dog, hike or bike beneath the pines, explore the trails or lose yourself in the scents & sounds of nature. It's mountain living with a little more breathing room, without the hustle & traffic, yet Snow Summit, shopping & dining are about 10-12 minutes away. The 6,800 sq ft fenced lot has a story of its own, with fresh eggs from the owners' well-loved chickens joining flowers, herbs & vegetables grown in the home's raised garden beds, creating a garden-to-table experience. A welcoming entry deck, additional seating area & expansive upper deck offer wonderful outdoor living & entertaining . This 1,200 sq ft, 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath reverse floor plan places the spacious Great Room & dramatic wood-burning fireplace upstairs. Soaring vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceilings, skylight & warm wood walls give this room distinctive mountain character. Southern/southwestern exposure brings in natural light, while remarkable fossilized eucalyptus flooring adds beauty, durability & scratch resistance. The wall of glass offers a wonderful vantage point to watch the snow fall & seasons change, with glimpses of the mountains through the trees. Open to the Great Room, the kitchen & dining area share the natural light & easy flow, while the open-concept design offers possibilities to make it your own. Three spacious bedrooms with large closets include one currently used as a great home office. High ceilings, beautiful beams & tongue & groove details continue the mountain charm. The full bath includes a large linen closet, complemented by a convenient half bath upstairs, while a separate laundry room adds functionality. Boat & RV parking with RV cleanout add flexibility, while additional space may offer possibilities to expand or add a garage. An aviary structure & powered shed add storage, and the roof was replaced in 2019. Mountain character, room to dream & the National Forest your playground!
