Surrounded by lush landscape, this 3BR/2BA hideaway boasts captivating decor, hardwood floors, and updated features, like a remodeled kitchen with gorgeous marble detail. Sip coffee on the deck while taking in partial ocean views and spend evenings relaxing inside next to the fireplace. Built in 1930, this darling home is situated in The Avenue, an artsy community located within a mile of the beach. Enjoy close access to the Ventura River Trail as well as the downtown area, boasting tasty eateries, local shops, and cinemas.

After a fun-filled day in the sun, relax on the plush sectional in front of the gas fireplace. Stream your favorite shows and movies on the 55" flat-screen TV with Roku. Feel right at home in the beautifully updated kitchen, outfitted with brand-new stainless steel appliances, marble countertops, and all the kitchenware needed. Craft a cocktail while preparing a sumptuous dinner. Enjoy meals together at the wood dining table.

This home has three bedrooms that sleep up to six guests and two full bathrooms. The primary bedroom includes a queen bed, walk-in closet, and a shared en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. The second and third bedrooms each have a queen bed and direct access to the deck via French doors. Freshen up in the second bathroom with a tub/shower combination. All bedrooms offer gorgeous views of Ventura.

Step from the kitchen to the side deck with seating. The lush front patio is furnished, offering a relaxing spot for evening drinks.

Complimentary Wi-Fi and a washer/dryer are provided.

The Westside of Ventura, also known as The Avenue, is a vibrant artistic community with a rich history. Stroll nearby Ventura Avenue to visit unique galleries and sample authentic Mexican food. Check out the Ventura River Trail, offering access to the ocean and downtown. For a day in the California sun, walk less than a mile to Surfer's Point at Seaside Park. Relax on the soft sands, go for a swim, or learn how to surf. Walk 10 minutes and find yourself in downtown Ventura. Search for unique vintage clothing, eat local food, and explore the city. In the evening, catch a movie at the Century 10 Downtown. Cruise five minutes to the Ventura Botanical Gardens and go on a guided tour to learn about over 100 species of plants. Enjoy an afternoon at nearby San Buenaventura Mission, a historic Spanish mission church dating back to the 1700s. The site is a 6-minute walk from home.

Great from start to finish, easy check in and even easier check out process. Loved the location and neighborhood being so close to downtown Ventura. We walked to dinner and lunch many days without thinking of driving and felt safe and secure the entire time. We will gladly be a returning guests for future visits. Our host was a very helpful and amazingly friendly neighbor.

Close to Beaches, Restaurants, Shopping
This property is very close to downtown Ventura, hiking trails, beaches, restaurants and shopping. Ventura has a small town feel even when packed with vistors for big events (X games). There are lots of activities and events happening, but access to beaches and the downtown is within walking distance of this property. Enjoy some great fishing and surfing along the CA coast. Close to harbors for swimming and paddleboarding.

Memorable vacation
The house has a mixed of trendy and traditional touch. There were a family of 5 ranging from 16 - 78. House had lots of amenities in additional to what was listed (cable, laundry soap, coffee, etc.) Located was awesome. Able to walk/run to the beach. Downtown is few minutes away if you want eat or shop around. Grocery store is steps away. This is just a great vacation place. High recommend if you just want to relax.

Great Location!
Great location that’s walkable to great restaurants, shopping and the beach. Used it for our access to great hiking in the area (Channel Islands, Migu Peak, Inspiration Point in Santa Barbara, Santa Paula Canyon) and urban hiking in town. House was very comfortable and well stocked. Owners are very helpful!

Great Home
There were three adults and two children and we stayed for two nights and three days. The home was spacious and very clean. The kitchen was great. The setting was beautiful with lots of trees and plants. The only drawback was the living room. There was just one couch and no other chair which made it difficult for five people to sit and watch TV. We definitely enjoyed our stay.

Family Trip
We had a great stay in Ventura. The house was very clean and well equipped. Most importantly it had three bedrooms! It was a great location for our visit to this area of of California. We arrived after visiting Joshua Tree National Park and was only a 5 minute drive to the Ventura Pier for our ferry to the Channel Islands. We were also very close to several beaches. Downtown Ventura had excellent dining options as well. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend the property

Miles above other short-term rentals! Beautifully furnished and decorated with wonderful, personal artwork. It’s on a slightly busy street, but you’ll never know it when you’re inside or on the deck.

Incredible property
The online pictures don't do justice to this property. It has all of the charm and character of a well maintained older home. It was spacious and well equipped. We had 6 adults in town for a niece's wedding and we never felt cramped at all. The large kitchen with modern appliances was perfect for those who like to cook. The entryway garden is beautiful and shows a flare for artistic creativity. It is a 10 minute walk to a vibrant downtown area where we spent time at the local farmer's market. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend to others.

Charming Cottage
The home is lovely; exactly as shown in the photos. I loved waking up and drinking coffee by the fireplace. The management company is excellent – if you have any questions they respond immediately. I do want to mention a few things: I would suggest cleaning thoroughly behind the couch, nightstands, etc. When I went to plug in my phone and laptop it was really dusty. Replace the area rugs, particularly the one in the living room; it bunches when you step on it, creating a trip hazard; it is laid out over not a slip pad, but an older, dirty rug. The bedroom closest to the kitchen – replace the nightstand and bedside lamp. The nightstand is too small to put anything on, and the light from the lamp is almost nonexistent; there’s not enough light to read a book.
