About this home

THE MONTGOMERY HOUSE, est. 1874: A cornerstone of Ojai's history, this grand Victorian is a rare fusion of heritage and possibility. Meticulously restored with a newly reinforced foundation, a fully redone roof, and stunning new copper gutters, this architectural jewel stands as a testament to timeless craftsmanship. Every original wood window has been lovingly rejuvenated, allowing abundant natural light to pour into the home's richly detailed interior. Warm wood accents, soaring ceilings, and intricate period detailing create a sense of elegance and nostalgia, while the iconic wraparound porch offers the perfect place to take in the Ojai's surroundings. Once home to a beloved art gallery, this storied residence exudes inspiration at every turn.With its flexible VMU zoning, the Montgomery House offers limitless potential. Currently it is a distinguished private residence and it could also serve a myriad of other uses, such as a thriving commercial space, an iconic gallery, a michelin restaurant, an integrative wellness-retreat, a creative hub for a multinational startup, or a vibrant community gathering space. The home's thoughtfully designed layout features two spacious bedrooms downstairs and two more upstairs, complemented by four beautifully appointed baths. Several windows offer sweeping views of the Topa Topa Mountains to provide a daily masterpiece, culminating in the area's famed Pink Moment. Just steps from Ojai's celebrated Farmers' Market and vibrant downtown, this landmark property is at the heart of it all, offering a rare chance to carry forward its rich legacy while embracing the future.
