Description

Imagine Ojai 100 years ago in 1926, as work commences on the Valley's most stunning Architectural Landmark Home. Youthful spiritual seekers are arriving in Ojai from across the globe, drawn by a young Indian philosopher and a renaissance of Eastern spirituality, mysticism, and contemplative thought. Amidst this extraordinary cultural awakening, a couple commissions one of Southern California's most beautiful architectural builds, spanning four separate parcels in a small but thriving community. Construction begins on a Moorish Mediterranean mansion named Acacia, after a tree symbolizing purity and spiritual enlightenment in Theosophical thought. Upon its completion in 1929, the home becomes a lodge and gathering place for philosophers, spiritualists, and seekers to contemplate the mysteries of the universe and our place within it. Welcome to The Acacia Mansion. One hundred years later, this extraordinary residence stands as a testament to the artistic vision and spiritual idealism of its founders. Spanning nearly a full flat acre in Ojai's beloved neighborhood of Meiners Oaks, and just steps from Oak Grove School, The Farmer and the Cook, the Ojai Noodle House, and so much more... this remarkable architectural residence maintains nearly all of its original features and historic character, thoughtfully rehabilitated for a new generation. Upon the enormous property sits a dormant half-acre of beautiful flatland, waiting for one's imagination; a botanical garden, a space for outdoor gatherings, an equestrian facility, a second residence, or anything one dreams. The home has been thoughtfully updated, improved, and repaired to exceptional standards. It now sits ready for its next owner to realize a new generation of dreams... a place where history, beauty, and imagination converge, and where the next chapter is yours to write.
