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. -Vanessa Gregory, staff writer 3 comments from 3 users

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

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

"At one time, the Glennville Country Estate belonged to late Lakers owner Dr. Jerry Buss and Washington Redskins owner Jack Kent-Cooke, according to the release." Jerry Buss isn't dead.
