About This Home

Located in the heart of upper Ojai, this extraordinary 3-acre property offers unparalleled views of the majestic Topa Topa Mountains, sprawling green pasture valleys, enchanting oak trees, and a flat grassy front yard. Thoughtfully landscaped grounds and vibrant gardens create a serene oasis, complemented by private decking areas that wrap around the back of the home, providing multiple spaces to relax and enjoy views of the oak grove and walking paths surrounding the back of the property. The main house boasts 3 spacious bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, including a primary suite with vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, a charming potbelly stove, and a generous walk-in closet. The luxurious primary en-suite bathroom features a freestanding bathtub and a separate shower. Warm wood floors flow throughout most of the home, while plush, newer carpeting enhances the two additional bedrooms and hallway. The open family room, anchored by a cozy fireplace, seamlessly connects to the dining and den areas, creating an ideal space for entertaining. The kitchen features open bar seating and ample counter space, perfect for casual dining and hosting gatherings. There is a fireplace in the dining room and the den and living room areas add to the open feeling of the home. Adding to the estate's allure is an approx. 750 sq.ft., detached guest house, built in 2012. This private retreat showcases rich dark oak accents, a vaulted ceiling living room, a spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, a full kitchen, and a private deck offering panoramic views of the Topa Topa mountains and valley below. Complete with its own private driveway, washer and dryer, and covered parking, the guest house is ideal for guests or as an income-generating rental. Additional features include a newer roof and A/C units, a private well (requiring a new pump), and also a connection to city water utilities. Even with its peaceful and secluded setting, this property is just minutes from Downtown Ojai, where you can enjoy boutique shopping, dining, a scenic golf course, vibrant parks, excellent schools, and a renowned concert arena. This Ojai estate is more than a home it's a lifestyle. Don't miss the opportunity to make it yours!
