Flawless... Impeccable... Timeless elegance... Just a few words to describe this mid-century California ranch home located in the highly sought-after Arbolada section of Ojai, and just two houses down the road from the former Reese Witherspoon Estate. Designed by Fred Moninger and featured in the Autumn 1961 issue of Architectural Digest, this East coast designer's own home was meticulously brought back to its former glory with absolutely no expense spared and no detail overlooked. From the imported grass cloth wall coverings to the custom made bath fixtures, marble baths, state-of-the-art security and fire protection system, Thermador professional kitchen with double wall ovens, six-burner cook top, warming drawer, dual dishwashers and 50" refrigerator / freezer unit, the custom designed exotic wood cabinetry and mill work throughout, art lighting, period Orrefors and Hollywood Lighting Company fixtures, custom door knobs and vintage cabinet hardware, to the custom tempered glass dual pane windows and doors, no stone was left unturned after completing an arduous and extensive eight-month restoration process. This is the quintessential home for formal or casual entertaining, both indoors and out, or a quiet respite lounging poolside. The nearly 3,500 sq. ft. nine-room home has four fireplaces, master suite with dressing room, marble bath with heated floor and Toto Neorest toilet, three additional bedrooms, three and one-half baths, living room with floor to ceiling glass wall, dining room with built-in buffet and linen storage, walnut library, family room with breakfast nook, kitchen, service hall and laundry. The fourth bedroom has its own bath, pullman kitchen and private entry -- perfect for weekend guests or maid's room. The home and pool are perfectly situated on 1.2 level acres with majestic eighty year-old California oak trees which canopy the beautiful grounds. Don't miss out on viewing this truly special and one-of-a kind property.
