History Was Made Here! Incredibly rare opportunity to own the Original Bear Valley Springs Homestead, and a true piece of Tehachapi history. Once referred to back in the 1800s by Bear Valley's founding families as The Garden of Eden, this Historic ranch complex is not only interesting from a historic standpoint, but the lot and location is clearly as prime as prime Bear Valley property gets!If buildings could talk, there would be much to say, from the Comfortable Main 3 bedroom, 2 bath Farmhouse, to the Adorable Guest Cottage, not to mention the Old Red Barn just bursting with charm and history, and has been the subject of many a photographer with the rustic, raw appearance, perched amid a meadow of green and wildflowers. The three car detached garage was a modern convenience added in the late 1980s and provides ample storage. This founding family recognized how special Bear Valley really was and just what it had to offer by describing it as One of the most Charming of the Many Beautiful Mountain Nooks of Central California, and this property absolutely captures the essence of Bear Valley from the very beginning. One just has to visit this property to truly appreciate. The modern day version of the community of Bear Valley Springs provides much in the way of safety and recreation, with amenities available to residents including guard-gated entrance, extensive Equestrian Center with multi-use arenas and round pens, including a large covered arena, 50+ miles of riding/hiking trails, golf course, 2 lakes stocked with fish, surrounded by parks & walking paths, Country Club with pools and tennis courts, Indoor Recreational Center, softball field, Model Airplane field, rifle range. .and more!Discover why Bear Valley Springs is the best kept secret in California. Come for a visit, stay for a lifetime!~~~
