About This Home

As of March 2023

Ventura living at its best! Wake up every day to unparalleled 180-degree views of the sparkling Pacific Ocean, Santa Cruz, and Santa Rosa islands, the iconic Ventura Pier, charming downtown Ventura, and miles of sandy beaches. 611 Buena Vista is reminiscent of an Italian Riviera villa. This 3860sf house, 13,875 sf lot was built in 2003 and offers 4 full bathrooms and ocean views from all 3 bedrooms and a 4th bed/office. Extremely well-designed, the floorplan takes advantage of the sweeping south-facing views from all the main living spaces, 3 bedrooms, and the 4th bed/office. 3 levels of patios and balconies with abundant glass doors and windows make every day feel like an Amalfi vacation. The main living area is located on the 2nd level with a bright open floor plan that flows easily from the kitchen to the living and dining areas awarding unobstructed views. The easy-start fireplace gives a homey feel for cozy days and nights. The expansive third-floor owner's suite puts the Biltmore to shame. You'll find a spacious, relaxing, and inviting retreat with splendid sunrise, sunset, and city light views with its own fireplace. The airy bathroom with granite counters and travertine marble shower and jetted tub offers a relaxing respite. The wall of glass and sliding doors open from the owner's bedroom to a spacious balcony shared with the second bedroom and bed/office on the third level. Imagine stepping out to welcome the day with your cup of local Beacon coffee or raising a glass to the vibrant pink sunset after another day well-lived. The kitchen is an entertainer's delight - granite counter space for days with a Viking cooktop, wall ovens, farmhouse sink, walk-in pantry, dishwasher, and ocean views. Off the kitchen, you'll find a beautiful outdoor kitchen with built-in BBQ so you can take the party outside. Even the first level bedroom has fabulous ocean/island views, high ceilings, and a full bathroom with a fabulous soaking tub and separate shower. With its own entrance and ocean view patio, this room would make a perfect in-law's suite, office, art, or writing studio. It can be closed off from the rest of the house. The backyard is beautifully landscaped with winding pathways that lead past fountains and trees up to an Italian-style pergola which is the perfect spot for a hot tub to watch the sun setting over the Pier. This house comes with a two-car garage and is accessed up a shared, well-maintained driveway. Two air conditioning units and forced air heat mean every day is the perfect temperature. You can't find a more desirable downtown location - set on a low-traffic street (with ample street parking for guests ) just one block above Poli street and next to the historic City Hall and Botanical Gardens. Downtown restaurants, stores, street fairs, the movie theater, and the Saturday farmer's market are two blocks away. Walk to the beach down California street. Our local surfing spot, C street, is close by. Easy commute to Santa Barbara and 1 hour from Los Angeles. Time to buy your Ventura dream. You deserve it.
