About This Home

As of August 2023

Step back in time and immerse yourself in local history with this one-of-a-kind home in the heart of the China Lake region. Originally built by Quakers who manufactured the bricks and once the summer home of the CEO of world-famous Hathaway shirts, this property has been meticulously updated by the current owners and offers an incredible living experience. Boasting five bedrooms and four full baths, this stunning home offers a sunlit and spacious dining and lounge area that leads to a modern kitchen with clean lines, an alluring and private brick patio, and a cozy family room perfect for reading or spending time with loved ones.
On the first floor, you'll find a naturally lit bedroom, full bath, and office that complete the ground-level living experience. Head up to the second floor, where a spacious landing that was once known as the library leads to three separate bedrooms, including the primary suite with its own preparation area and full bath. The third floor offers another entertainment room, a fifth bedroom, and a full bath.
Adjacent to the main house, the former servants' quarters have been transformed into an in-law apartment that features two additional bedrooms, a bath and a half, a kitchen, and laundry area. The former butler's quarters provide even more possibilities for this living space.
This unique property also includes a full-sized barn that has been beautifully decorated and outfitted with a bar and bathroom, offering unlimited possibilities. The property itself is situated on 25 acres of rolling lawns, trails, and trees on a peninsula surrounded by China Lake. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become the next owner of this truly exceptional property in the heart of the China Lake region.
