Set along the tranquil shoreline of Big Bear Lake’s sought-after Metcalf Bay, this exceptional lakefront estate offers a rare blend of privacy, history, and refined mountain living.

The main home features an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area ideal for entertaining, multiple recreation spaces, five bedrooms including two primary suites—one with a striking stone fireplace—3.5 baths, and elevator access for convenience and accessibility. A beautifully updated detached 1890s cabin offers two additional bedrooms and one bath, perfect for guests or extended stays. Situated on over half an acre of prime lakefront, the property includes a private channel trench providing boat access even during low-water seasons. Beautiful Park-like grounds in the spring and summer showcase towering pines, sweeping lake views, expansive decks, a pavilion, meandering creek, and a charming wheelchair-accessible miniature golf course A truly rare find—ideal as a legacy estate, luxury retreat, or exceptional waterfront investment in one of Big Bear’s most coveted bays.
