Stargate Sanctuary -- A Rare, Gated Compound in Ojai's East EndStargate Sanctuary is a magical, self-sustaining retreat nestled in Ojai's prestigious East End -- a Mediterranean-style gem designed by renowned architect Marc Whitman. Newly refreshed and surrounded by breathtaking mountain vistas, this 1.73-acre gated estate offers a seamless blend of timeless elegance, natural abundance, and serene seclusion.The main residence, a 1,410 sq ft architectural jewel, features an open-concept layout with soaring, beam-accented ceilings and walls of windows that flood the space with natural light, creating harmony between indoor and outdoor living. Two private bedrooms are situated at opposite ends for optimal privacy and comfort.Ideal as a family compound or retreat space, the property includes two beautifully designed detached guest units (536 sq ft and 700 sq ft), perfect for visiting friends, wellness retreats, or multigenerational living.Beyond its aesthetics, Stargate Sanctuary is built for both inspiration and preparedness -- a private paradise ready for the times, with vegetable gardens, gated entrances, and fully fenced grounds. Chickens, goats, or other animals can live in style too, thanks to charming stucco outbuildings designed just for them.The land itself is a living apothecary and orchard, featuring a remarkable variety of fruit trees including lemon, lime, orange, grapefruit, plum, peach, apricot, grape, avocado, mulberry, fig, cherimoya, persimmon, cherry, pear, guava, and passionfruit. A lush collection of medicinal herbs thrives here as well: elderberry, rosemary, silver sage, wormwood, mugwort, helichrysum immortelle, oregano, and thyme.Everywhere you turn, the scent of jasmine, honeysuckle, gardenia, roses, lavender, lemon verbena, and geraniums fills the air -- making every walk on the property a sensory experience.This sanctuary is within walking distance to award-winning schools, yet tucked far enough from town to offer peace and privacy. Hop on a bike and be in town in minutes. The layout is ideal for retreats, artists, nature lovers, or those simply seeking peace without sacrificing style.And in a rare and significant advantage: this lot now qualifies for water well permits, thanks to its location atop a newly identified aquifer beneath the East End -- offering both sustainability and future security.Whether you're seeking a soulful escape, a creative refuge, or a sustainable compound with room to grow a
