Property Description

Architecturally striking and rich with character, 251 Palomares is a rare prairie-style residence that blends timeless design with modern comfort. It was built new to reflect the era. Tall, wide and straight is evident throughout including the work of a master carpenter. Strong horizontal rooflines, stacked stonework, and custom lighting create a dramatic first impression, while stained-glass details and warm wood accents carry the artistry indoors. The entry opens to a thoughtful floor plan anchored by a stone fireplace framed with hand-crafted stained glass and elegant wood paneling throughout. Every detail has been carefully planned -- from the slate stone flooring to the custom light fixtures that add depth and warmth to each room. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen stands out with high-end appliances, abundant cabinetry, and generous prep space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the grand primary suite offers a private retreat with a south-facing balcony, perfect for enjoying natural light and Ventura breezes. On the main level, a separate suite currently set as a private office provides flexibility for remote work or guest accommodations. Step outside to a spacious backyard deck surrounded by low-maintenance landscaping and hardscaping, ideal for gatherings or quiet moments at home. With its northeast-facing frontage, the home captures soft morning light while staying cool in the afternoons. From the custom wrought iron accents to the intentional architectural flow, 251 Palomares is more than a home -- it's a statement of design, craftsmanship, and California coastal living.
