About This Home
Perched high in the Ventura foothills on an exceptionally private estate lot, this one-of-a-kind residence commands breathtaking 280-degree panoramic views spanning the Pacific Ocean, coastline, harbor, pier, mountains, and city lights. Designed for those who appreciate artistry, privacy, and unforgettable scenery, the home offers ocean views from nearly every room & wrap-around decks, culminating in awe-inspiring vistas from the fourth-story tower which is a true architectural showpiece. The environmentally conscious owner & builder, Frank Peterson, utilized a copper roof ingeniously engineered to direct rainwater into an underground well.
Custom craftsmanship defines both the interior and exterior, with thoughtful details at every turn. An elegant octagonal fireplace room creates a dramatic yet intimate setting, complemented by a skylit sitting area showcasing a custom serpentine motif. The kitchen and dining areas feature a striking custom marble floor embedded with natural pebbles, blending organic elements with refined luxury. An ocean inspired sea animal wrought iron rail adds a playful yet sophisticated coastal touch.
A custom spiral staircase with intricate inlaid floor design serves as both a functional centerpiece and a work of art. The home welcomes you through a handcrafted stained-glass front door, while a custom artistic garage door further elevates the estate's unique character.
Ideal for hosting while maintaining privacy, the property includes two separate guest units, perfect for visiting family or extended stays. Nestled just minutes from Ventura's pristine beaches, dining, shopping, and cultural amenities, this extraordinary estate offers the rare combination of seclusion, convenience, and panoramic coastal beauty.
A truly unforgettable residence that is designed to inspire, impress, and endure.
