About 861 Kern Ave
Property Status: Active Charming, easy-living mountain chalet tucked away on a quiet street, approximately 500 feet from trailheads leading into the San Bernardino National Forest. A welcoming front deck invites you into a warm, light-filled interior featuring a striking stone wood-burning fireplace and an open living and dining area-ideal for relaxed mountain living. The galley-style kitchen is equipped with a gas range and refrigerator, while two comfortably sized bedrooms offer generous closet space. The home is clean and well maintained, with low-maintenance luxury vinyl flooring throughout and dual-pane windows that bring in abundant natural light. A sliding glass door from one bedroom opens to a recently added rear patio with a private spa (spa servicing paid by housing provider), creating the perfect setting for unwinding under the stars. Additional amenities include two gravel parking spaces, a brand new stackable washer and dryer, and limited storage in the build-up area beneath the home. The property is offered unfurnished. Photos feature staged furnishings and do not represent the condition in which the home will be leased.
