Nestled in the heart of a vibrant but relatively sleepy Southern California beach town, this charming townhome beckons you to experience coastal living at its finest.
This beautiful oasis, completed in the spring of 2024, offers panoramic views of the Channel Islands and Ventura's famous Surfer's Point.
Step outside and find yourself enveloped in the sheer convenience of this location just a 5-minute leisurely walk brings you to Ventura State Beach, five minutes more lands you at the historic pier, Surfer's Point, and the alluring beachfront promenade. Venturas charming downtown is also only a 10 minute walk away, where you will find an eclectic mix of shops, a local museum, the iconic Ventura Mission, and an assortment of fine dining and brewpubs. The nearest gastronomic delights are a mere 3 minutes on foot.
Inside, the aesthetics are just as pleasing. Each room is adorned with premium, waterproof, wood-style vinyl flooring and light-blocking shades to ensure your utmost comfort at any time of day. Hosting two well-appointed bedrooms and a pair of pristine bathrooms, the space is as functional as stylish.
The third level's main suite is a sanctuary of relaxation, where mornings begin with an awe-inspiring ocean panorama. Furnished with a high-caliber queen bed, ample drawer space, and an ensuite bathroom featuring a double vanity and bidet-equipped toilet, you can start each day refreshed and ready. A walk-in closet provides generous storage, making extended stays a breeze. The third level boasts the primary suite and offers access to two expansive decks, perfect for soaking up the sea air and enjoying the tranquil views.
In the heart of this home, the second level, the social hub welcomes you with a seamless fusion of kitchen and living spaces, brimming with top-tier amenities and furnishings. Picture yourself sipping morning coffee on the deck (a French press and Keurig coffee maker are ready to go), savoring the ocean's presence, or gathering with friends in the living room, which is outfitted with a luxurious Finnish leather couch, leather chairs, and a multi-color electronic fireplace that doubles as a heater for those cooler coastal evenings.
The kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a versatile stainless-steel cart that makes cooking, serving, or tackling projects an absolute delight. The adjoining dining area comfortably seats six to eight people around a chic glass-top dining table, ensuring memorable meals and engaging conversations.
A well-considered guest room doubles as a workspace. It has the highest-quality, super-comfortable sleeper sofa, an adjustable desk, and ergonomic seating options to fulfill rest and productivity needs. Even more, a state-of-the-art large LG OLED SMART TV can serve as a workstation for your laptop or a showcase for your photography and videos. Both bedrooms have stand up desks and chairs for those who need to work.
Completing this picture of unrivaled convenience is a compact laundry closet with a stackable washer and dryer, a printer/scanner nook (equipped with a Brother printer/scanner), and thoughtful touches throughout that make a living here effortless. The property's shared spaces include landscaped grounds featuring a playground, providing a touch of nature's beauty and a space for play.
Ventura offers a year round temperate climate that unlike inland areas, rarely gets over 85 degrees, and the surrounding region offers a host of recreational and cultural opportunities, which include:
* beachwalks, bodysurfing, boogie boarding, and surfing.
* whale watching and visits to the Channel Islands National Park (the Galapagos of California), both accessible from the "Island Packer" at Ventura's Marina
* downtown concerts, comedy clubs, movies, and plays; and right behind the beautiful and historic Ventura City Hall is the beloved Ventura Botanical Gardens, a great place for a hike, including to the Ventura Cross, a favorite place to watch the sunset over the town, ocean, and islands.
* visits to the famous artist enclave at Ojai (a 30 minute drive); chic Santa Barbara (30 minutes north) and wine country (only another 20 minutes further); the Malibu coast (begins about 30 minutes south) and its Getty Museum; the Los Padres National Forest with opportunities to view the majestic condors flying overhead (an hour away); and Los Angeles, with all of its cultural and entertainment options (begins just 60 miles south).
* Ventura also boasts several athletic facilities: the Pierpont Racquet Club, with a fitness center and pool (a 3 minute walk); the first-rate and inexpensive Ventura Aquatic Center (a 10 drive); and a 24 hour fitness, YMCA, and LA Fitness (6, 7, and 10 minute drives, respectively).
As you can see, for the discerning tenant seeking exclusivity, tranquility, ocean views and diverse cultural experiences, this townhome is not just a residence; it's a lifestyle statement. Offering a negotiable rental price for the solitary occupant and considering pets depending on the type, our townhome provides serenity, luxury, as well as many cultural opportunities and adventures.
