About This Home
As of July 2023Discover this classic, charming cottage, ideally located in Ojai's downtown business district, a mere two short blocks from our famed Farmers Market. Situated on a nicely landscaped, fenced parcel, the home boasts 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, totaling 1134 ft. of living space. The layout and design of the home offers convenience and functionality to ensure an elegant and comfortable living experience, coupled with beautiful outdoor spaces that provide privacy and security. Because of its Village Mixed Use zoning (VMU), this property is flagged for its desirable live/work potential. It is the perfect spot for an artist studio or professional services enterprise that reflects the culture and flavor of our eclectic community. The attached two-car garage was last used as an artist workshop and studio. The most recent upgrade to the home is a permitted, 300+ ft. bedroom suite, purposely designed to include a right-sized kitchenette, and is ready for submittal as an ADU. Whether looking for your own personal home-business or desperately needed rental units, this property offers numerous options. For families with children, the property is within Ojai's Unified School District, or choose from the numerous exceptional private schools in the area. With its proximity to downtown, walk to shops and restaurants. Go to Libbey Park and Bowl for concerts and events, or just to hang out. Experience the Ojai lifestyle like so many other fortunate, downtown residents. It's all within your reach. This is a rare opportunity that deserves a very close look.
