Tucked behind private gates on 1.5 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, this extraordinary Ojai compound offers the rare combination of seclusion, relaxed sophistication, and sweeping natural beauty- just minutes from downtown, yet a world apart.The Mark Whitmandesigned main residence is a masterclass in contemporary design utilizing the best elements of mid-century modern architecture, where clean lines, generous glass, butterfly roofs, textured walls of plaster, and an effortless connection to the outdoors define every room. At the heart of the home, a tranquil koi pond anchors a central atrium, bringing the serenity of nature into the daily rhythm of the house. The great room is an expansive living and dining space and flows seamlessly into a large chef's kitchen built for both everyday ease and memorable entertaining. These public spaces are oriented to capture head-on views of the Topatopa Mountains, opening to the pool a cascading waterfall and expansive entertainment patio, providing a variety of perches to take in Ojai's legendary Pink Moment as the peaks glow at dusk. A separate family room with a fireplace and a quiet den framed by garden and mountain vistas offer versatile spaces for gathering, working, or unwinding.The primary suite opens to its own private garden and features a spa-like bathroom and dual closets.
