Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1965, this property is aged but appears maintained. The kitchen is significantly outdated with white appliances, dated cabinets, and older countertops, indicating it has not undergone a major renovation in at least 20-30 years. While functional, the home requires substantial cosmetic updates, particularly in the kitchen and likely bathrooms (not pictured), to meet modern standards. There are no visible signs of structural issues or safety concerns that would classify it as 'Poor'.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Expansive Lot Size: The property features an exceptionally large lot of over 15 acres (668,646 sqft), providing significant privacy, potential for various uses (e.g., equestrian, agriculture, additional structures), and a sense of seclusion.
Desirable Ojai Location: Situated in Ojai, a highly sought-after Southern California community renowned for its scenic beauty, artistic vibe, and tranquil lifestyle, which significantly enhances the property's appeal.
Scenic Views: Boasts desirable canyon and hill views, offering a picturesque backdrop and enhancing the overall living experience and property value.
Generous Living Space: With 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across 2500 sqft, the home provides ample space suitable for a large family or for accommodating guests.
Customization Potential: The large lot and 1965 build year present a significant opportunity for a buyer to customize, renovate, or potentially expand the existing residence to their specific tastes and needs.
Cons
Extended Time on Market: The property has been actively listed since August 2020, indicating a prolonged market presence which could suggest issues with pricing, condition, or perceived value.
Age of Construction: Built in 1965, the home is nearly 60 years old, implying that major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and finishes may be original or require significant updates, potentially leading to substantial renovation costs.
Lack of Specific Upgrades/Condition Details: Without explicit mention of recent renovations or modern amenities, potential buyers may assume the property is largely in its original 1965 condition, which could deter those seeking move-in ready homes.
