Originally designed by Austen Pierpont and built in 1950, this remarkable home reflects how the architect’s designs moved toward modernism in the Postwar Era. This Mid-Century Modern home was then fully remodeled in 2014, including an 1,100-square-foot addition designed by Bryan Pollard and adding the swimming pool to the expansive outdoor living areas.
The moment you step onto the property, you know that you have entered a one-of-a-kind oasis and will begin to anticipate the unique, upscale touches you are bound to find throughout. You will not be disappointed as you enter the home and begin to notice the incredible attention to detail and eye towards upscale living that went into every design choice. From the Ashley Norton door hardware found throughout to the dining room’s antique Chapman light fixture to the French casement windows chosen for unobstructed views, this well-designed home is a delight to experience.
A gated entrance opens to reveal a large, gravel guest parking area. From here, you can take the flagstone walkway to the main entrance of the home or continue through an electric gate to the primary parking area. In this section, you will find a paving stone parking area with ample parking for your personal vehicles, a large RV parking spot with a 50-amp hookup, and an over-sized, two-car garage.
As you take the flagstone walkway past the fountain and to the main entry, you will begin to notice the well-manicured privacy landscaping bordering the fully fenced property, the heritage oaks and abundance of trees, and how well designed the outdoor living spaces are throughout the property. One spot you are sure to notice is the expansive, decomposed granite outdoor entertaining area just beyond the main entrance. This huge space is connected to an additional seating or area by flagstone steps and is just waiting to host your next soiree, which you will surely want to schedule around sunset to take full advantage of the view of the Pink Moment on the Topa Topa Bluffs.

But before we explore the multiple outdoor living areas and beautiful grounds, let’s first take a look inside.
The flagstone patio at the front entrance has space for seating and is connected to the home’s interior by a French casement window that opens onto the patio from the dining room. Stepping through the over-sized entry door, you are greeted with a travertine-tiled foyer with a vaulted ceiling and a picture window looking out to the fountain, oaks, and entertaining area. The foyer opens to the living room and dining room with a wood-beam ceiling, antique Chapman light fixture over the dining room table, and a buffet or desk alcove under the window that opens to the front patio.
The travertine floor and ogee-edged, travertine baseboards found here are also found throughout the house, except the two guest bedrooms where you will find hardwood floors. The living room also has a wood-burning or gas fireplace, built-in shelves next to the fireplace, and a wall of windows with a retractable door and screen allowing in natural light and connecting this space to the main outdoor living area.
The galley-style kitchen features a farmhouse sink with an accordion window opening to the pool area, Viking refrigerator, Carrera Gold marble counters, subway tile stove wall, a Dutch door to the parking area, French doors to the main outdoor living area, a television, and a 48-inch, dual-fuel Wolf range with six burners and a griddle. There is also a walk-in pantry with built-in shelves and cabinets, a beverage refrigerator, and a coffee bar.
From the dining room, step down into the guest wing where a travertine-tiled hallway leads you to the two guest bedrooms and guest bathroom. The first guest bedroom you come upon has hardwood flooring, two closets with built-ins, ceiling fan, and large windows for natural light. The second guest bedroom, which was the primary bedroom in the original design, is a spacious room with hardwood floor, ceiling fan, vaulted ceiling, two closets with built-ins, and the perfect corner for a seating area with large windows and mountain views, including Ojai’s iconic Pink Moment.
The beautiful guest bathroom has a travertine shower and bench, as well as an exposed wood ceiling. The guest wing hallway is also home to a closet for extra storage and large windows to carry on the home’s design theme of bathing every space in natural light and connecting the interior living spaces with the outdoors.
At the other side of the living room, French doors open to the media or family room. This open but cozy space features a wood-burning or gas fireplace with a deep firebox, vaulted ceiling, ceiling fan, built-in sound system, and built-in cabinets and shelves. French doors connect this space to the patio and large entertaining area at the front of the house. There is also a door to the pool area, which allows this space to be a central, indoor gathering area connecting the outdoor living areas.

There is also a door to the pool area, which allows this space to be a central, indoor gathering area connecting the outdoor living areas.
After the media room, the 2014 addition begins, which starts with a large laundry room with a fossil stone counter, built-in storage cabinets and desk, sink, pull-down stairs to a storage attic, and a door to a flagstone patio and large dog run.
Next is the primary suite, which is a spacious, restful retreat with a vaulted ceiling, room for seating, ceiling fan, travertine floor, and a wall of windows with French doors opening to the pool and main outdoor living area. The views include the pool, mountains, and grounds, and there is, of course, ample natural light bathing the space.
The spa-like en suite bathroom has a large, walk-in closet with built-ins and a built-in ironing board, separate water closet, two vanities with Carrera Gold marble counters, built-in drawers and shelves, a travertine shower with a bench, and a French casement window opening to the backyard.
In the oversized, detached garage, there is a second laundry room with two storage closets, sink, and powder room. A door at the back of the laundry room leads to the finished two-car garage, which has a utility sink, insulated walls and door, slate tile floor, and a workshop area with built-in cabinets and drawers, lots of countertop workspace, and a door to the pool area. There are also two doggie doors leading from the garage to two separate dog runs behind the garage.
The courtyard-style main outdoor living area is accessed from the kitchen, living room, primary suite, and media room and is a well-designed space for everyday outdoor living and entertaining. There is a built-in, 48-inch Viking grill with a bar and counter, a patio fireplace with a cozy seating area, a covered patio with two ceiling fans, and an additional flagstone patio for more seating or entertaining. The central focus of this space is the swimming pool, which features a Baja shelf, hot tub, automatic cover, and travertine pool deck. The kitchen’s folding window creates a pass-through for food and drinks making indoor-outdoor entertaining even more convenient.
Just beyond this space, there is a large lawn and a walkway leading to a separately fenced area. This is where you will find the two dog runs with doggie doors leading into the garage. One of the dog runs has artificial turf, and the other has gravel as the ground cover. There are also raised garden beds for growing vegetables and herbs and a family orchard with pear, apple, blood orange, persimmon, cherry plum, kumquat, loquat, lemon, lime, and orange trees. All of this is accessed by decomposed granite walkways that meander through the serene, park-like setting.
Golden Oaks Glen is a unique, well-designed property that offers everything you need for upscale everyday living and entertaining. From this comfortable homebase, you can enjoy all that the Ojai Valley has to offer, including walking or biking to one of the weekly farmers markets or the shops and restaurants downtown, spending a weekend morning on one of the many hiking trails, or heading to Lake Casitas for boating or camping.
