Description

Looking for a magical, private getaway that appeals to all senses, away from the noises of the world? Welcome to this extraordinary Encino estate behind gates, a serene, verdant environment with ponds, floral and vegetable gardens, a mini- paddock and barn enclosure for horses and other animals....a small, idyllic farm south of Ventura, an ideal compound for children, friends and family and anyone wanting to stay away from it all, while living creatively and fully at home. The estate comprises a 6-bedroom (?) main house, originally built in the 1930s and upgraded over time...a romantic inner courtyard, complete with fireplace, sets the scene for entertaining and gathering...inside, expansive living areas include a gourmet chefs kitchen with large butlers pantry, an original pub, large living room with views to both exterior gardens and interior courtyard, while a second-floor studio and ground-floor spacious workshop offer endless options to creators and craftsmen. Beyond is the 55-foot pool, spa and sauna, completely enclosed by trees and other plantings. Further along, a one-bedroom guest cottage sits perched atop a pond - a perfect writers retreat - while a large picturesque one-bedroom guest barn - utterly modernized and spacious, has easy access to gardens and grounds, yet offers another quiet getaway experience for privacy. Finally, a second 3-bedroom mid-century modern home sits on the other side of this nearly-3acre property, complete with a recording studio, perfect for artists, guests or multi-generational living, and with a view of the oldest oak tree in Encino. Words cannot do justice to the beauty, magic and romanticism of this once-in-a-lifetime property, it's a must-see to be experienced first-hand. Furthermore, the owner is open to creative financing options.
