Property Description
Set within one of Ojai's most coveted and discreet enclaves, Amanjai is a truly rare offering, an estate where privacy, scale, and design converge in a way seldom seen. Spanning nearly four pristine acres behind private gates, the property offers a lifestyle that feels worlds away, yet remains just moments from the charm and energy of Ojai's vibrant village of boutiques, restaurants, and cafes. From the moment of arrival, a palpable sense of calm takes hold. Beyond the gates, the estate unfolds as a secluded sanctuary, framed by what are arguably the most exceptional views in Ojai. The iconic Chief's Peak rises directly before the property, alongside the famed Pink moment, creating a breathtaking, ever-changing landscape that shifts beautifully with the light throughout the day. This is more than a view, it is a living work of art. Encompassing approximately 8,101 square feet of living space, the estate offers a total of 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms, thoughtfully distributed across the main residence and guest structures to create an exceptionally flexible and private living environment.At its heart, a striking single-story residence embodies a seamless blend of modern California architecture and timeless European influence. Soaring ceilings rise to nearly 20 feet, creating a sense of volume, light, and quiet grandeur. Expansive 10-foot rolling pocket doors disappear entirely, dissolving the boundary between indoors and out, and allowing the surrounding landscape to become part of the living experience. A refined palette of natural materials anchors the design. French limestone flows effortlessly from interior spaces to the outdoors, while heated brushed oak flooring introduces warmth and comfort underfoot. Every element has been thoughtfully considered, light, scale, and proportion working in harmony to create spaces that feel both expansive and intimate. The kitchen is exceptional in both form and function, appointed with Sub-Zero refrigeration and drawers, Miele appliances, wine storage, ice makers, and a Wolf double-oven range, designed for effortless daily living and elevated entertaining. A fully integrated Savant system provides intuitive control of lighting, climate, audio/visual, and automated shading, delivering a seamless, modern living experience at the touch of a button.Beyond the main residence, the estate reveals itself as a true compound an increasingly rare offering of this scale and flexibility. Two guest houses, a separate gym, creative studio, and garage create a private world within the property. Whether hosting extended family, welcoming guests, or creating dedicated spaces for work, wellness, or creativity, the estate adapts effortlessly. It is a property designed not just to live in, but to live fully. The grounds are nothing short of extraordinary, lush, mature, and deeply intentional. Meandering pathways wind through curated gardens, citrus groves, olive trees, and grapefruit trees, creating a setting that feels organic, abundant, and serene. A true farm-to-table lifestyle unfolds naturally here. Outdoor living reaches a resort-caliber experience. A dramatic 70-foot swimming pool serves as the centerpiece, complemented by a sauna, outdoor shower, and a fully equipped BBQ and dining pavilion. Integrated surround sound flows throughout the grounds, setting the tone for both intimate evenings and unforgettable gatherings. Every corner invites pause, quiet seating areas, shaded retreats, and open spaces designed to restore, recharge, and inspire. The energy of the estate is unmistakable: calm, expansive, and deeply connected to its surroundings. Inside, the home continues to impress with generous walk-in closets, refined finishes, and living spaces that balance elegance with livability.Sustainability is thoughtfully integrated through solar power and a private well, supporting a more self-sufficient and environmentally conscious lifestyle without compromising comfort or luxury.
