Walk through this incredible ocean view home, custom built by an architect for her personal residence. At nearly 3500 square feet, this extraordinary home offers 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms with breathtaking island and ocean views from almost every room. A spacious entry welcomes your guests entering through a custom designed oversized mahogany door with a speakeasy opening. This impeccably maintained home is highly upgraded with custom details and materials including solid oak floors, Loewen wood clad casement push-out windows, craftsman detailing, and high ceilings on the main level. All the bedrooms are oversized, and several have walk-in closets with the Master Bedroom closet being particularly oversized. Each bathroom has generous storage, and the Master Bath is well appointed with a soaking tub enhanced with lots of light. This house was designed to entertain with a kitchen layout that can host several chefs along with mingling guests. With cabinets all the way to the ten-foot ceiling, storage will never be an issue. The Gathering Room is designed to be flexible and can serve as a dining, living space and a library with its custom mahogany built-in bookcases and cabinetry or with a little rearranging, it can become an entertainment space for lectures, recitals with a grand piano or clear it out for a great dance floor! The outdoor decks and beautifully landscaped yard enhance the indoor-outdoor entertainment focus. The lush garden is a paradise with meandering stone and gravel footpaths, featuring a pond, a fire pit area, perfect for outdoor movie nights, several fruit trees, and a viewing deck. The focal point is an outdoor dining area framed by a charming pergola topped with healthy producing grapevines. Throughout the property, the windows, patios and wrap around porch are perfectly laid out to enjoy the beautiful Ventura sunsets and city lights at night. The house is also positioned to experience the morning sunrise over the Conejo Grade, which can be particularly inspiring. The oversized 3 car garage with a 10-foot ceiling is a dream for storage and organization. In addition, there is a separate workshop area accessible by sliding doors which is quite large and has the potential to become a JADU. Lastly, the house has a fully finished attic with windows, with lots of nooks and crannies, perfect for a kid's playroom or craft room. Creative spaces and storage abound in this home. Every detail has been thought through and will last a lifetime.
