Description

Situated in a peaceful neighborhood, this completely remodeled home’s curb appeal emulates the tranquility and charm of the Ojai community. A single story 3+2 ranch style home also offers an attached 1+1 ADU with a full bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and laundry. Both living areas offer brand new modern amenities, making it an ideal retreat for every homeowner from individuals seeking a serene lifestyle, to those seeking income from long or short term rental, or ideal separate guest space or multi generational living. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by an inviting interior filled with natural light from brand new designer windows and ceramic plank floors to an open kitchen concept, cultured marble countertops and peninsula with stainless drop in sink, all brand new cabinets and stainless appliances. Other new amenities include updated smooth ceiings, canned lighting throughout, pendant lighting over the peninsula, washer and dryer, completely remodeled bathrooms and tankless water heater. Outside, the property features simple, low-maintenance landscaping design that is arid and drought-friendly, perfect for those who want to enjoy the beauty of California without the hassle of extensive yard work. Whether hosting a barbecue with friends or unwinding after a long day, the outdoor space provides endless possibilities for enjoyment and relaxation. Detached 2 car garage, extended driveway with covered carport area and potential front parking spaces give you so many options to accommodate multiple guests or recreational vehicles or boats. This residence not only has it all, is conveniently located just outside the hustle of downtown Ojai tourist traffic, but close to enjoy its unique shopping, restaurants, parks and trails. For outdoor enthusiasts, the house is less than 10 minutes to Lake Casitas, a 15-minute drive to Surfer's Point Beach or an hour-long bike ride along the scenic Ventura River Parkway Trail. With its impeccable design, modern amenities, and prime location, it presents a wonderful opportunity to experience the best of Ojai living.
