119 S Alvarado Street, Ojai, CA 93023

Description

READY-TO-BUILD OPPORTUNITY IN THE HEART OF MEINERS OAKS! Rare permit-ready, shovel-ready development opportunity on an 8,125 SF R3 lot located in one of Ojai Valley's most walkable neighborhoods, just steps from popular restaurants, shops, and local favorites. This unique property offers a serene, oak-canopy setting at the front of the lot, creating a natural sense of privacy and tranquility, while the rear portion provides an ideal, open build area positioned away from the street.Included with the sale are county-approved, stamped architectural plans for a thoughtfully designed approx. 997 SF, 2-bedroom, 2-bath single-family residence featuring modern code upgrades, including fire sprinklers, solar readiness, and fire-zone considerations. Permits are ready to be issued, allowing a buyer to begin construction quickly. Plans were designed with consideration for future ADU/JADU potential (buyer to verify).The property also includes a legally permitted one-car garage structure, grandfathered under the oak canopy footprint where new building is restricted. The space offers unique flexibility and may serve as a temporary crash pad or workspace during construction (buyer to verify permitting and use).All utilities are already in place, including water, sewer, and electric--significantly reducing development time and upfront costs. Once the primary residence is completed, the site may offer additional long-term upside with future ADU/JADU development possibilities (buyer to verify).A rare chance to secure a turn-key development setup in downtown Meiners Oaks where much of the heavy lifting has already been done. Bring your builder and vision and start creating immediately.
