Another Outstanding Opportunity Awaits. Family home collective? Artists' Haven? Yoga/Spiritual Retreat Center? Horse lover's colony? Off the grid living? The possibilities feel limitless!Let's travel back in time to a bygone age. Where style and structural integrity in home building craftsmanship was at its finest. This stunning cottage was built in 1930. Each piece of stone was hand chosen and carved by a master craftsman. A one-of-a-kind craftsman masterpiece, and is one of two houses in all of Santa Paula built out of stone completely throughout and not just a stone facade. This is one of the most unique houses in all of Santa Paula, and perhaps in all of Ventura County. Situated on close to 1.3 acres of horse zoned property. The home boasts original hardwood floors throughout the majority of the home, charming built ins, large closets and some very unique living spaces, including a 'speak easy' type wine cellar & an attic sanctuary for meditation and massage. The floor plan features 4 bedrooms and a den, one of which has its own separate exterior entrance and a fully enclosed patio that has two washer/dryer hookups and a sunny seating area. The front yard has been immaculately re-done to be eco and water preservation conscious. The side yard includes the foundation for a large pond as well as a very large garden area/horse corral space or ?A portion of this area is currently enclosed with a split rail 3-rail fence and is large enough to hold horses or other farm animals. Other upgrades include: All indoor plumbing replaced with copper in 2016All knob and tube wiring was replaced with romex in 2016Brand new REDWOOD fence installed in 2022 Upgraded electrical to 150 Amp The water heater was replaced in 2021 along with the main floor heater downstairs. The love & pride the current owner has in this home shines throughout. All of this and so much more at a most attainable price. Welcome HOME.

Storybook stone home built in 1930 offers you a step back in time where you feel you just went home to Grandma's house. Rare 2 story 4+2 home - 2329 s. f. per tax records, this charming home features original wood floors, large stone fireplace, remodeled kitchen with granite counters and tile floors, newer nice dual paned windows, 1 bedroom and 1 bath downstairs plus 3 bedrooms and a bath upstairs. Classic basement under the home would make a great wine cellar and the enclosed wrap around back porch perfect for storing your canned veggies like Grandma did. With just over an acre of land and located off the main path, the property should allow for a garage and/or extra unit to be built on the property. Several easements do affect the land so not all is usable but the land size does provide protection from surrounding properties. Truly a classic one of a kind home and one that has been admired for years. Needs your loving touches but you'll certainly never find another one like it!
