Property Description
Welcome to 440 Mariposa Drive, nestled in the scenic hills of Ventura with breathtaking panoramic views of the city and ocean. Built in 1999, this architecturally striking 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home was inspired by the legendary Frank Lloyd Wright. Its hexagonal design, handcrafted woodwork, and exceptional craftsmanship make it truly one of a kind. Designed with sustainability in mind by environmentally conscious owners, the home features a copper roof ingeniously engineered to once direct rainwater into an underground well. Inside, the flexible layout features multiple rooms with private entrances ideal setup for rental income, guest accommodations, or multi-generational living. A spiral staircase leads up to a hexagon-shaped rooftop lookout, perfect for soaking in the 360-degree views of the ocean, city, and rolling hills. Each level also boasts wraparound decks, offering a place to hang out in the fresh air and take in the scenery without ever leaving home. Step outside to a beautifully landscaped yard filled with tropical greenery, fruit and olive trees that thrive in Ventura’s ideal climate. The spacious deck, once graced by Jane Fonda herself, provides a special space for entertaining or unwinding under the California sky all while enjoying the endless views. With 3,517 sq ft of living space on a rare, fully usable 6,969 sq ft lot in the hills, the possibilities for outdoor enjoyment and customization are endless. This isn’t just a home, it’s a piece of art. A must-see!
