The Fox Farm area of Big Bear is located near the center of Big Bear Valley on the South Shore. If you are driving on Big Bear Blvd South on Starvation Flats will get you into the Castle Glen development in the Fox Farm area.

Castle Glen is one of Big Bear's favorite neighborhoods. Castle Glen is a quick left up Eagle Ridge and is located on the top of what many locals used to refer to as Rattle Snake Mountain. The area was at one time an Eagle Preserve, and there are areas that are within Castle Glen that are designated as open areas for wildlife. Many eagles have been sighted by home owners in the area. Homes in the Castle Glen area have underground utilities and many homes have Lake or Ski Slope Views. The homes in these areas are currently starting in the low $600,000's and go up to $2,400,000. With 24 homes currently available in this area, buyers have some great properties to choose from. Interest rates are at historic lows and I believe that now is the best time in years to buy. 

This home on Starlight Circle closed escrow on the 25th of January, and set a new record for the highest sale ever in Castle Glen Estates at $1,900,000. This home was listed for sale with Mike Wochner who is a member of  "The Tim Wood Group"  Big Bear's Leading Real Estate Group.

As you can see the lake views were outstanding and the home was spectacular. With 4200 sqare feet of living space and a three car attached garage, this is one of the homes that buyers find irresistible.

The home below was sold in June 07 for $684,000. This home is 1940 square feet and the lot size is 12,345. It is a 3 bedroom and 2 bath home built in 2000.

Homes in the Castle Glen area that are similar to this home are now priced in the low $600,000's.
