About This Home

As of February 2019

Two for the price one! Two legal units plus an elegant art studio welcome you to this newly updated Ojai sanctuary; a refuge of natural light, lush flower gardens, romantic patios, and peaceful views of green meadows and abundant trees. Vaulted ceilings, a double-sided fireplace, and spacious rooms welcome you into the main house. The extensive walls of windows blur the lines between the inside and the outside offering you the best of both worlds. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a vintage gallery kitchen and a distinctive office area provide ample space for comfortable living with entertaining in mind. As you stroll through the grounds you will encounter two additional structures; a stunning, professional art studio and a darling guesthouse set amongst a variety of fruit trees, lovely fountains, and raised vegetable and herb beds. All of this leaves you feeling like you are miles away from it all, yet you are just blocks from downtown Ojai. Delightful and appealing, this Ojai oasis will capture you with its charm!
