Bring ALL offers! One-of-Kind property that will not be on the market for long! Rare Downtown original Mid-Century Modern circa 1951 reflecting Pierpont sensibilities. Nestled under Ojai’s famous downtown oaks, the 512 Residence presents itself with two main views, one from the quiet residential neighborhood of Canada street, and the other from it’s spacious double-corner lot on Summer street, affording subtle mountain, oak forested, and exceptionally bright garden views through over-sized back living room, kitchen, and bedroom windows. While the all-original angles of the vintage structure define the property, a 2004 period-correct remodel by architect Mark Shellnut and commissioned by Kelley and Malcolm McDowell added over 1200 square feet in the form and function of a large master bedroom and bath, complete with 4 large windowed doors opening to the back garden and oak terrace providing true indoor/outdoor living space. A spaciously tiled modern master bath features a walk-in shower as well as a full-sized bath adorned with modern, period, and vintage fixtures all fully functional. The all-original living room with sloped ceilings, fanned wood beams, curved-radius architectural-block walls, fireplace and period modular built-in units define the heart of the home, affording beautiful private views and glimpses of the Los Padres mountains. The bright open space is achieved by natural white fir floors and large floor-to-ceiling windows. The open floor plan of the family living space and kitchen are conducive to intimate family gatherings while providing uncluttered access to 3 private living spaces including the Master and bath, a front sunken bedroom, as well as a large front bedroom/office area with quick access to the front bathroom and shower. Other notable features of the residence include an integrated natural wood-beam carport with full length concrete driveway. This provides a separate private entrance to the master as well as to a contemporary powered office space and back workshop created in the same style as the main residence, adding uniquely functional versatility to the property whether it be as a writing, music, or work studio or simply an individual private space. A large window looking over the garden as well as french doors afford open views to the main residence. The spacious private Back Garden, shaded by beautiful twisting oaks, dramatic architectural views and citrus-producing trees. Terraced steps crafted from flagstone, wood, and stone surfacing lead to an intimate sitting patio off of the main living and kitchen area. Twin modern heat-pump, two central/AC units, Gas, and updated electrical service panels provide reliable systems. Neighborhood Description Quiet, friendly and walkable! Kind neighbors, larger lots with well-groomed lawns, minimal morning street traffic, open views of mtns and sky. Located downtown, within easy walk to Libby Park and Amphitheater , bike shops, coffee shops, library, or the trails that climb from the end of the road to amazing views of the valley.
