174 Valley Road

Welcome to The Big Life Bungalow! Cozy, charming, and distinctly Californian. This 2 Bedroom + Den, 1 Bathroom single-level home is for those who are called to a life of variety and richness that mirrors the character of what beckons all around its location - Ventura County's great outdoors. Upon approach, you'll be… greeted by the bungalow's beautiful blue siding which is perfectly juxtaposed against a sprawling paver pattern driveway that surrounds a floating redwood deck. As the front porch ushers you in through a timeless white door, you'll enter a naturally bright living room with accents of crown molding, chair railing, and burgundy wainscoting to complement the cherry colored wood floor. Moving towards the back of the home, through a lovely archway, is the dining room and kitchen which flow seamlessly together as the heart of the home. Flanking the dining room is the den – where you can bunk a guest, work from home, or workout without disturbing the primary bedroom side of the home. Taking things to the opposite side is a cute arched doorway leading into the hallway where each bedroom and bathroom sprout off. The main bedroom is wide with ample natural light and the guest bedroom is plenty large with a classic aesthetic. The bathroom keeps with the home's tasteful touches by having pan to ceiling tile in the shower that matches the vanity backsplash. When you step out onto the partially covered back patio - the laundry room will be on your right, additional patio/outdoor dining space will be on your left, and the enormous backyard ahead will pull you into its greenery. Such an ample amount of yard space creates a potential opportunity to capitalize on the home's modesty by building an ADU. Furthermore, due to the amount of driveway parking, you could also combine & convert the garage and den into a JADU (making it possible for 3 units on the property). To bring everything full circle - Lake Casitas, Ventura River, Los Padres National Forest, Topa Topa Mountain, Hiking/Trailheads, Oak View Park, Surfer's Point, and so much more are all within a very short stroll or drive from the front door. Whether you make this fantastic home your primary residence, an investment property, or both via a 'house hack' just make sure you don't miss your chance to live big by owning The Big Life Bungalow!!
