Perched above a quiet, rustic canyon neighborhood in Ventura, this distinctive hilltop compound offers privacy, space, and versatility across a sprawling lot with inspiring mountain vistas. The property comprises, 7978 Camp Chaffee, a 1 bed/2 bath main residence with 2 spacious living areas and, 8020 Camp Chaffee, a separate guest house with 2 bed/1 bath and its own private access--ideal for multi-generational living or rental opportunity. The living space of both units combined is estimated to be 2,813 square feet. An additional guest bungalow and separate studio provide space for art, work, or retreat. The exterior is freshly painted in the gorgeous color, California sagebrush, that complements the surrounding landscape. The main home is thoughtfully designed for both comfort and functionality. The open-concept kitchen, appointed with quartz countertops, flows into the living area with fireplace and opens onto a patio garden and serene outdoor spaces. A sunroom adjacent to the kitchen offers flexible potential as a second bedroom. The primary suite features a walk-in closet and private garden access. Just steps away, a detached structure serves as a perfect studio, office, or creative space. At the far end of the property, the guest home is a separate residence with equally enchanting views, a tongue and groove high ceiling in the primary bedroom, and new stainless-steel appliances in the kitchen. Tucked above the main home is a guest bungalow with its own kitchenette, 3/4 bath, and sleeping quarters--perfect for a quiet retreat. A long private driveway winds through native greenery, offering seclusion andimmersion in nature. This is a rare opportunity to live and create in a tranquil settingthat feels far removed--yet remains connected to the vibrant culture of canyon life. In under 15 minutes, you can find yourself enjoying Ventura's surf, hiking nearby Ojai trails, or having dinner downtown in either community. DIRECTIONS: Follow GPS from Casitas Vista to Right on Santa Ana to Left on Sky High, continue on narrow, windy road OR if you have a truck or SUV, you can cross the creek water with caution/at your own risk from Casitas Vista. There is a sign that says, 'road closed' at the creek.
