THIS IS WHY YOU COME TO BIG BEAR! There’s nothing like sitting on a spectacular deck amid the sights & sounds of nature, trees silhouetted against the evening sky—an irresistible invitation to gather with friends or family. The Great Room brings the kitchen, dining & living areas together, with a fantastic mix of industrial & textural details adding character. Soaring T&G ceilings, exposed beams, wood-style laminate flooring & the wood-burning fireplace create a wonderful focal point. A huge picture window brings natural light & the French sliding glass door affirms the connection to the outdoors. The remodeled kitchen pairs quartz countertops & updated cabinetry with a fantastic dining island & open dining area. From creating memorable meals to watching the Super Bowl, the open design brings everyone together. Luxury meets whimsy in the main-level bath with an artful vanity, striking mirror & expansive tiled shower. Dual access serves the main floor while giving the bdrm an ensuite experience. The bedroom offers a window seat & desk, while a huge picture window & French sliding door keep nature close. A second entry adds upstairs flexibility, where the built-in washer & dryer are central to the bdrms. Serenity is yours in the spacious primary suite, where the vaulted ceiling, wood floors & a remarkable picture window set the tone for relaxing & recharging. The ensuite bath has a luxurious spa tub. Extensively renovated, it features dual vanities with distinctive slatted towel storage, custom-tiled shower & thoughtful lighting that adds warmth & style. The upstairs bunk room was made for mountain sleepovers & staying up past bedtime. All 3 bdrms offer portable A/C. Some of the BEST mountain moments can happen here—soaking beneath star-filled skies or graced by falling snowflakes from the warmth of the 6-person Hot Springs spa. With seating & an outdoor dining table—a wonderful spot for conversation & dining al fresco. The gently sloping yard has room for outdoor fun, snow play, 4-legged friends & your own outdoor vision.
