Description

The Estelle Clark Estate. Romance is in the Air! Gracefully situated along Ojai's prestigious Foothill Road, The Estelle Clark Estate is a true fairytale treasure where history, romance, and timeless architecture come together. Designated a Historic Landmark, this extraordinary Tudor Revival estate was commissioned in 1929 by silent screen star Estelle Clark and designed by renowned architect Austin Pierpont. During the 1930s, Clark and her husband, legendary composer Leo Robin, called the estate home. It was here that Robin composed Bob Hope's signature song, Thanks for the Memory, along with many other timeless classics. Lovingly restored while preserving the integrity of its original Tudor Revival design, the estate blends old-world craftsmanship with today's comforts. Set on approximately 1.17 acres with breathtaking mountain views, the property features a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath main residence, an enchanting barn, and a detached yoga studio. Inside, rich architectural details define the home, from the dramatic living room with soaring barrel ceilings and Venetian plaster walls to the original oak and mahogany parquet floors and beautiful leaded and stained-glass windows that fill the interiors with natural light. Outside, lush gardens, a sparkling pool and spa, a pergola-covered glass/green house, a charming interior courtyard, and expansive terraces create an idyllic setting for relaxing or entertaining, all framed by the spectacular backdrop of Chief Peak and the Topa Topa Mountains. Just minutes from downtown Ojai, scenic hiking trails, boutique shopping, acclaimed restaurants, wine tasting rooms, farmers' markets, and the renowned Ojai Valley Inn, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Ojai's most cherished historic estates. *The property is part of the Mills Act, which results in reduced property taxes.*
