Hidden Gem

Nestled among massive oaks in the heart of Ojai, this extremely private gated property has been professionally designed by a local artist. Filled with original art and vintage textiles that mirror Ojai’s famous pink moment, this tranquil and tastefully furnished home features a newly renovated kitchen with an eat-in dining nook. There are two king bedrooms (one with an en suite bathroom), and the office has a daybed that easily adapts to host one or two over night guests.

The roughly 10,000 square-foot lot is set back from the road and surrounded by redwood fencing on all four sides. It features drought tolerant landscaping, ample parking and a beautiful shaded patio. You can BBQ a meal with friends, relax in the hammock, or spend an evening gathered around the fire pit.

This home is one block from the farmer’s market, and a five-minute walk to the center of Ojai. It’s less than a block from Tipple and Ramble, one of the towns loveliest little beer and wine bars. From Meditation Mount to the nearby Ecotopia Hot Springs, to the 15+ breweries in a 30-mile radius, Ojai has something for everyone. Ride a bike through the citrus orchards to the tasting room at Ojai Olive Oil, hike to Shelf Road to take in panoramic valley views, or simply while away the day sipping coffee or doing yoga on the spacious, shaded patio as the smell of orange blossoms wafts your way.

On summer days, Ventura’s milder climate and picturesque beaches are just a 20-minute drive through beautiful rolling hills. This cottage would also be a great home base to explore the best of Southern California, with easy day trips to Santa Barbara, Santa Inez Valley wineries, and Los Angeles.

*Please note this property is accessed by a shared gated driveway followed by a second private gate ensuring maximum privacy.
