About this home

Step into a timeless Mid-Century Modern retreat designed by noted California architect Randolph Chalfant Head. Built in 1948, this single-story residence captures the essence of post-war modernism with clean lines, natural materials, and effortless indoor-outdoor flow.Expansive picture windows flood the living and dining spaces with natural light, while original built-ins, custom shelving, and warm wood accents highlight Head's thoughtful craftsmanship. The remodeled kitchen melts perfectly into the the dining area and bonus room, just off the lanai. The open layout offers three bedrooms, 1 1/2 bathrooms plus the bonus room off the kitchen .This architectural gem pairs mid-century authenticity with modern comfort all while being located in one of Ventura's most sought-after areas, the Cunnane neighborhood.

This single-level home is set on a spacious 7,405 sq ft lot, with multiple patios, raised garden beds, and a detached garage--ideal for a studio, workshop, or future ADU. Off the garage is an outdoor shower, with it's own water heater, ready to wash off the salty residue of nearby waves. Experience the serenity, simplicity, and design legacy of Randolph Chalfant Head--a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Ventura's architectural history.
