854 Thomas Street, Oak View, CA 93022

Description

There's a certain kind of feeling in the Ojai Valley, golden light that lingers a little longer, quiet that feels earned, and views that stretch your perspective in every sense. Set behind a gated entry in Saddle Mountain Estates, this classic two story Victorian estate captures that atmosphere in full. Built in 1984 and gracefully set across 2.05 acres, the 3,941 square foot main residence feels both stately and deeply inviting. A formal entry opens to timeless living spaces, where gatherings unfold in the elegant dining room, stories are shared beside the fireplace in the formal living room, and everyday moments settle comfortably into the warmth of the family room. Upstairs and tucked away, the primary suite is its own retreat, generous in scale, with a grand bath, a distinctive 'Oval Office' space perfect for work or reflection, and a private porch that frames the sweeping views of the Sulphur Mountain range. Beyond the main home, the property unfolds into a true country estate. A breezeway connects to the detached two car garage, topped by a charming ensuite guest quarters. Nearby, the barn, complete with three stalls, tack room, and wide paddocks, anchors the equestrian lifestyle, while an attached office and guest suite provide flexibility for creative pursuits, work from home needs, or extended stays. The grounds themselves are something special. Once featured on Ojai Valley garden tours, they tell a story of care and time, with over 40 coastal oaks casting dappled shade, flowering gardens that change with the seasons, and a rich variety of fruit trees offering everything from citrus to stone fruit. A custom oval pool with spa and rock waterfall becomes the centerpiece of long summer afternoons, while soft landscape lighting carries the ambiance into the evening. Here, privacy is a given, the views are wide and ever changing, and the pace of life slows just enough to savor it. This is more than a home, it is a place to breathe, to gather, and to live beautifully.
