Tucked into the hillside of downtown Ojai, CA is this midcentury ranch house that offers indoor-outdoor living with floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto the one acre plus property. The current owner has created a slice of Zen countryside in the middle of Ojai, one that boasts clean lines, a chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, open spaces, and natural materials like concrete floors, unstained wood trim, along with Fleetwood glass doors that floods the space with natural light. The serenity evoked by the meticulously kept private grounds, complete with a detached guest house with a separate entrance, vintage barn with a loft, Japanese-soaking tub, sparkling swimming pool and neighboring horse pasture makes one feel decidedly outer Loop. The whole property feels more like a compound. This peaceful refuge is nestled under Heritage Oaks, making it the perfect combination for one's life balance. Simply a MUST SEE.
