About this home
Delightful 3 bed wood frame home with spectacular views of the Martin River Watershed, the Kenai Range and private lakeThis historical homestead is a true jewel.HOA with shared access to grass airstripThe "farm" at Bear Cove was homesteaded by Harold and Roxie Pomeroy in 1948. During their tenure, which lasted until the Farnsworth's purchased the property in 1985, they built several cabins, a shop, and a warehouse on the property using lumber they milled from the trees they logged. At the same time they built the road from the beach, using dynamite to blast the boulders into a manageable size.
In the 1950's they commercially farmed the property, growing potatoes and cabbages on terraced hillsides at the west end behind the greenhouses they constructed to grow tomatoes. Roxie would take her produce down to Homer in a dinghy to sell on the beach at the end of the spit. They later removed the greenhouses and put in the airstrip.
Harold was in the Territorial Legislature in Juneau and spent much of his time there, so in the sixties they moved to Anchorage and left the farm in the hands of caretakers. Both Harold and Roxie loved the place so much they wanted to be buried there and so they are.
The Farnsworth's purchased the property in the mid eighties after having leased it for a few years. Since then, there have been many improvements made, increasing the size of the main cabin threefold and installing indoor plumbing and a furnace, installing metal roofing on the cabins, and generally improving the living conditions. They have enjoyed this special place for many years, part of the family living there year-round in the mid-to late eighties. It's now used as a retreat in the summer months, allowing the family to fish for halibut in Kachemak Bay, dig clams on the beach at low tide and enjoy picnics at the beach or around the fire pit.
