Room to Grow in OjaiTucked beneath a canopy of mature oaks with mountain views, this 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom home has the space and setup to fit however you live. A low-water front yard with river rock and native plants keeps things simple and easy to maintain.Inside, the kitchen opens to a bright living room and foyer, with wood-look tile flooring running throughout the main level. A flexible bonus room downstairs with its own mini-split for heating and cooling works as a fifth bedroom, home office, guest space, or whatever you need it to be.Upstairs, an open staircase leads to four bedrooms, including a primary suite, plus a well-kept bathroom with quartz counters and a tiled shower.The real draw might be out back: a wide-open, flat yard anchored by a huge heritage oak, with plenty of room for a garden, play space, a future ADU, or just breathing room. It's a blank canvas that can grow with whatever plans you have for it. A 2-car garage (21'2 x 20'8) rounds things out.Seller will carry a second mortgage for qualified buyers. Call agent for details.
