Private sanctuary in Ojai's prestigious Arbolada neighborhood, walk to downtown

Welcome to Rancho Palomar. This newly-renovated contemporary mid century ranch home is nestled among majestic oak trees on over an acre in the Arbolada, one of Ojai's most historic and sought after neighborhoods. Lush landscaping and meandering pathways await you at this quiet, peaceful retreat where you can experience the best of Ojai's natural beauty yet located just 1 mile from downtown and the Ojai Valley Inn & Spa. The main house has 3 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms: master has a California king bed & en-suite bath, one room with a queen bed and one with a double bed. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream with a Wolf pro-style range, Sub Zero fridge, marble countertops with waterfall island, brushed gold fixtures throughout and a La Cantina folding door system that opens entirely to the backyard patio for a true indoor/outdoor experience. Family room has a brick fireplace, Samsung Frame TV with Art Mode & soundbar, vaulted timber ceiling with sandblasted texture & private patio with tree top views.

Included in your rental is the separate 400sqft pool house which also has a folding door system that opens to the pool deck and has its own bathroom, mini fridge, pull-out sofa bed & work space, also serving as the yoga & meditation studio. Grab a drink from the pool house and step out to the Ipe wood deck built around a new Hot Spring spa in a serene, private setting placed strategically to soak while stargazing the legendary Ojai night sky. Kids will enjoy the ping pong table, tetherball, basketball hoop, pool toys & surfboards for the beaches in nearby Ventura.

The pergola-covered outdoor dining patio has a Traeger grill and custom-made stone fireplace with pizza oven. Cool off in your own private pool on the hot summer days. Pick your own veggies from the garden & enjoy the seasonal fruit varieties, or head downtown for produce from local farms at the weekly Ojai Farmers Market. On your way back stop by the famous Barts Books, the worlds largest outdoor bookstore. Enjoy 5 star dining, cafes & live music, all within a short distance from the house.

A stroll around the Arbolada is a must, with winding tree-lined streets & a wide array of architectural styles blending with the natural environment. Thanks to the Ojai Valley Land Conservancy we also have various hiking & mountain bike trails around town.

Please note that children are welcome but must be supervised by an adult around the pool and spa. All guests use the pool at their own risk. Pool is not heated but the temperature is just right in the summer months. Loose pebbles on pool deck, sandals recommended.

I'm available by phone, text & email. I may be out of town but available to assist during your stay. I also have local assistants for any in-person needs.
