Property Description
Located along Ojai's beloved North Signal Street, this 1918 Craftsman bungalow is a rare jewel box, rich in craftsmanship and artistry. Originally a bakery, the 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers 1,656 square feet of thoughtfully curated living space, where historic charm meets a modern, quiet, minimalist aesthetic. Owned by an artist and musician, the home was renovated in 2022 and is composed of a refined palette of materials and finishes: original oak floors, hand-finished plaster walls, locally crafted ebonized solid oak cabinetry, soapstone countertops, an 18th-century Belgian stone sink, artist-designed solid brass lighting, and custom metalwork. Throughout, warm textures and natural materials create an atmosphere of intimacy and understated sophistication. The home features a new standing-seam metal roof, solar panels, Tesla Powerwall, Viking appliances, John Pawson kitchen fixtures, updated electrical and plumbing, reverse-osmosis water filtration, a tankless water heater, a covered back porch, and a detached garage offering potential for conversion or redevelopment as an ADU. The home rests on nearly half an acre of native grounds, offering a beautiful sense of space and connection to nature. The grove of mature olive and oak trees includes a 200-year-old heritage white oak and large natural boulders. Persimmon, pomegranate, and mulberry trees add to its layered, organic character. Just a short walk to Ojai's hiking trails, farmers markets, and downtown, this location offers an exceptional balance of nature and convenience. It is a special property for those drawn to authentic architecture, thoughtful design, and the quiet magic of Ojai.
