Magnificent Ojai estate nestled on approximately 3.8+/- acres, offering sweeping views of the Topa Topas, masterfully merges timeless old-world aesthetics with contemporary California artistry. This exquisite Mediterranean-style residence--designed by acclaimed architect Marc Whitman--is a rare offering that combines privacy, elegance, and craftsmanship at the highest level. Curved lines, arched doorways, and cathedral ceilings set a tone of quiet grandeur. Inside, every detail has been meticulously curated--from solid walnut flooring and bespoke cabinetry to imported Spanish tiles, hand-forged chandeliers, and custom windows and hardware. The expansive living room, featuring multiple seating areas, a fireplace, and French doors, opens to a private library and a sunlit patio, perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The gourmet kitchen, with top-tier appliances and panoramic views, is both a culinary haven and a gathering place. The primary suite is a sanctuary with two sitting areas, a fireplace, double doors to a private terrace, stunning mountain vistas, generous closets, and a spa-inspired bathroom. Three guest bedrooms, each with ensuite bathrooms and access to patios and gardens, offer ultimate comfort and privacy. A fifth bedroom occupies the top level--complete with a loft, fireplace, and two balconies--ideally suited for an office, studio, guest retreat, or live-in support. With multiple bedroom suites and separate living zones, the estate offers exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living or those seeking refined personal space. The top-level suite also serves as a unique option for a private executive office or creative retreat. Seamless transitions from the interior to the outdoors--through French doors and strategically placed terraces--extend the living experience to sunlit decks, lush gardens, and an inviting pool area. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, a luxurious second home, or a legacy investment, this estate is a rare opportunity to own an architectural masterpiece in one of Ojai's most exclusive enclaves.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
