About this home

This impeccably preserved Spanish Colonial Revival estate was designed by renowned architect George Washington Smith and built by Ojai benefactor Edward Drummond Libbey as Spec House ''A'' for his new subdivision called the Arbolata. This Ojai Landmark #16, built between 1921 and 1922, benefits from the Mills Act with property tax savings. This spectacular estate is complete with 4 bdrms, 3.5 baths, detached artist's studio with ¾ bath, saltwater pool, solar electric, 3 car garage and exquisite grounds. The home showcases the vintage tile floor, accent tiles, fountain tiles and roof tiles, all original and imported from Spain. The original fireplaces and soaring open-beamed ceilings of the stunning interior complement the dream kitchen with a luxury AGA Cooker taking center stage. The second story is a master suite with private viewing deck, and a sumptuous spa quality master bath featuring RTK decorative tiles. Guest bedrooms enjoy a private wing on the main level. Steve Handelman light fixtures are featured throughout the home. Outside, pathways lead to a fruit orchard, raised beds, and the handsome pool with RTK tile trim within a beautiful stone wall. Towering oaks and red bark eucalyptus trees shade this exceptional legacy property.
