MoneyTalks - > Money Talks -> Kern luxury
Kern luxury

It's always fun to ogle houses you can't afford.

A Miramonte resident bought a 300-acre estate near Woody last week for $2.3 million, according to a press release from J.P. King, an upscale property auction company based in Alabama.

Aside from acreage, the buyer got a five-bedroom ranch house, an A-frame main lodge set on a lake and two cabins. Not bad.

At one time, the Glennville Country Estate belonged to former Lakers owner Dr. Jerry Buss and Washington Redskins owner Jack Kent-Cooke, according to the release.

A 32-acre portion near Bear Creek described as "ideal for a ranchette or private estate" sold to a Bakersfield bidder for $192,500.

Jerry Buss isn't dead.

I didn't know there were any lakes around Woody, it always seems so dry up that way.

Thanks BakersfieldBlows. I relied on the press release, which obviously wasn't correct.
