About this home
Built in the mid-60s, the two-story dwelling with a studio/in-law suite stands in the quaint town of Kernville, a few hours north of Los Angeles, where everything from wilderness hiking to whitewater rafting is outside your front door. In addition, the property includes access to Bubbles Beach. It's a private beach moment away that's reserved for River kern property owners, where you have riverfront access to spend a relaxing afternoon along the sandy banks of the mighty Kern River. When you are at home, the main level of the two-story dwelling features a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace in the living room, a dining area that provides a spot for morning coffee and homemade meals, and a roomy den with a Malm-style fireplace. The yard awaits your green thumb. There's income potential with the studio above the garage. It has a separate entrance and combines a bedroom, kitchenette, and work area with bay windows looking toward the mountain tops.
