In the same family's hands since the first board was placed...
The exterior has just been restored and repainted to National preservation standards. This is a truly amazing, one-of-a-kind hand-made classic Craftsman home, designed by Henry Mather Greene of Greene & Greene Architects, Pasadena, CA. It is the only Greene and Greene design in Ventura and one of the most highly documented designs of the firm on record. The home is on the National Register of Historic places and was built between 1923 and 1924 with additional work completed into the 1940s. Attention to detail is evident everywhere you look in the house. There are 3 master bedroom suites as well as two additional bedrooms and oodles of charm and elegance throughout. Property is protected by a Conservation Easement and is NOT subdividable or developable for other residences.Archived in September, 2007
