The Avenue: Charming hideaway with private deck & peeks of ocean, near downtown

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.
