Just a few walking blocks from the heart of downtown Ojai, this thoughtfully renovated two-bedroom, two-bath bungalow pairs timeless character with modern comfort. Walk to your favorite cafes, restaurants, galleries, shops, hiking trails, and the farmers market, then come home to a quiet, light-filled retreat under a beautiful oak tree.Renovated in late 2024, the single family home features new flooring throughout, beautifully reimagined bathrooms with high-end tile and fixtures, an all new kitchen, updated lighting, and efficient mini-split heating and cooling in every room. The primary suite has a walk-in closet and a fully redone custom pebble shower with pulido-style micro-cement finish and Zia terracota floor tiles and in-floor heating. The guest bath has emerald green Zia tile and a deep soaking tub, along with a skylight. Original details--including some vintage cabinetry and the pantry--have been carefully preserved, giving the home warmth and personality that newer construction often lacks.Natural light fills the living spaces, while the backyard has been transformed into a private outdoor sanctuary with thoughtfully designed hardscaping, native landscaping, raised planter boxes, and views of the Topatopa Mountains (for the perfect Ojai moment sunset). Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee or gathering with friends in the evening, the setting captures the easy pace that makes Ojai so special.Adding exceptional flexibility is a detached studio of approximately 200 square feet, ideal as an art studio, home office, gym, or guest space. A second detached outbuilding provides additional room for a workshop, storage, or creative pursuits.With approximately 1,100 square feet of living space in the main home, a detached studio, and an additional workspace, this is a rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready property that offers both character and versatility in one of Ojai's most sought-after downtown neighborhoods.
