Just 65 miles from Burbank, Rancho Tranquilo in Upper Ojai offers country living minutes from shops, restaurants, spas, golf, and the weekly farmers market.
A private, gated road leads past the lighted tennis court, horse facilities, caretaker’s quarters, and over-sized RV garage to deliver you to this expansive, hacienda-style home with guest quarters, gym, game room, office, large vestibule, wet bar, and two fireplaces.
Head to the central courtyard to lounge by the pool or grill a feast for your family on the built-in BBQ, ride horses or motorcycles on your own property, harvest fruit from the family orchard, grow fresh produce in the vegetable garden’s raised garden beds, soak away the city stress in the master bedroom’s two-person spa tub, or simply spread out and enjoy the space on your private retreat spanning more than five acres.
Now is the time for you to live your dream of a simpler, country lifestyle, so come meander through your irrigated pastures and enjoy the beautiful mountain views.

If you love horses or simply like to have plenty of space to spread out and enjoy your hobbies, this Upper Ojai horse property just might be your next dream home.
To enter this country retreat, you pass through an electric security gate and follow a private road that is lined with tree roses and gently curves past two irrigated pastures to reach this spacious home. Reminiscent of a traditional California hacienda, the home is built around a central courtyard with French doors leading from the interior rooms to this large outdoor living area.
This home was definitely designed for those who love to spend time outdoors, which is displayed through its many al fresco features, including a lighted tennis court, a 12-stall barn, an arena, a round pen, a swimming pool and spa, a vegetable garden with raised garden beds, a family orchard, a regulation-size horseshoe pit, numerous outdoor entertaining areas, a fire pit, and a large, brick, built-in barbecue. The barn sits on a concrete slab and is currently set up with five indoor-outdoor stalls, an indoor wash rack, a tack room and a feed storage area.

Other features found throughout the approximately 5.11 acres include a hot walker, mature landscaping (most with automatic irrigation), a fountain, covered parking, tons of guest parking, two irrigated pastures, a composting area and an over-sized, three-door RV garage. There are also two smaller garages attached to the caretaker’s quarters, which would be great for storing recreational vehicles, tools or maintenance equipment. A working outhouse with a flushing toilet adds to the ranch-style appeal of the property.
All of these amenities are nicely separated throughout the property and easy to get to on roads that connect each level.
Once you have had a chance to take in all of the exterior features and enter this approximately 4,274-square-foot, hacienda-style estate, you will likely feel right at home in the spacious, inviting interior.
The courtyard design allows for two distinct wings, which provides separation between the main living areas in one wing and the guest quarters and three flex rooms in the second wing. The quest quarters have a full, en suite bathroom, a walk-in closet, an exposed, wood beam ceiling and a separate entrance, making it a comfortable retreat for both short- and long-term guests.

The three spacious flex rooms could be used for various purposes, including a home office, an artist’s or writer’s retreat, a gym, a game room, homeschooling room, additional guest rooms or a yoga studio. One of the flex rooms has a wood-burning stove, two have tile floors, two have trestle ceilings and each has French doors opening to the courtyard.
As you enter the main living wing of this spacious Upper Ojai country estate, you step into a formal vestibule bathed in natural light from over-sized windows. This large vestibule has plenty of space for a breakfast area or designated reading spot, as well as three sets of French doors leading into the open-concept great room. The center set of doors opens to display the sunken living room, which features a grand, brick fireplace.
Travertine and hardwood floors connect the different areas in this expansive room, which also is home to a wet bar, a walk-in coat closet, the formal dining area and French doors leading to the courtyard and swimming pool. Over-sized windows look out to a fountain and mature landscaping, while an arched doorway leads to a hallway with wood floors leading to the bedrooms and laundry room and mudroom.

To the left of the great room, you will find a powder room, the kitchen and the family room. The kitchen features a laminate floor, lots of storage space (including pull out shelves in cabinets and the pantry), granite counter tops, a granite breakfast bar, great views from the sink and prep areas, a built-in microwave, an electric cooktop, and a stainless steel dishwasher, double oven and warmer.
The kitchen has a door leading to the portico that acts as an exterior entrance to the courtyard and is open to the family room, which has French doors leading to the courtyard.
The first room on the courtyard side of the bedroom wing is the master bedroom. As you enter the room, you are greeted by a brick, corner fireplace and views of the courtyard, pool and mountains through a set of French doors. The bedroom seamlessly flows into the en suite bathroom with a two-person spa bathtub, a large vanity with two sinks, a tile shower and a separate lavatory. You can also enjoy courtyard views from the large, walk-in closet as you select your ensemble for the day.
As you continue down the hallway, there are three guest bedrooms with appealing features, like large closets and ceiling fans. There is also a guest bathroom with laminate flooring, dual sinks, a tile shower, plenty of storage and a separate lavatory.

The door leading outside from the laundry room opens onto a brick patio adjacent to the courtyard with a gate to a separate yard area with a fountain.
Much as it was during the Rancho Era, the courtyard in this hacienda-style home provides a central location for family and guests to gather for events and celebrations or simply to relax by the pool. Two changing rooms near the pool allow you to control the flow of guests into the main home, while a covered seating area provides a shady place to relax when the sun’s rays are a bit too hot. There is a built-in barbecue grill for cooking outdoors, as well as a fire pit and spa with a waterfall flowing into the pool for your guests to enjoy while swapping stories or watching the kids play.
Both passive and active solar are in place to offset the costs of electricity for the pool and the house. There are three Casitas Municipal Water District water meters for the property (one of which is a shared meter) and a septic system.
This Upper Ojai horse property has so much to offer – and the exterior features are so thoughtfully laid out across the property that this is one you will want to see to fully appreciate
