Nestled between the Pacific Ocean and the mountains of the Los Padres National Forest the city of San Buena Ventura (more commonly referred to as Ventura) is the quintessential California beach town. This charming city lies about an hours drive north of Los Angeles and 30 minutes south of Santa Barbara on the California coastline.  Ventura's Mediterranean climate is sunny year round. Locals and visitors alike enjoy excellent surfing from the renowned surfer's point.  Hiking, biking, golf and beachcombing are also favorite outdoor activities.  Ventura's Harbor is one of the gateways to the Channel Islands where weekend anglers and commercial fishing vessels begin their journey across the channel to fish in our abundant waters.

The wonderful sense of community here is evidenced by large turnouts of families for the Downtown Art Walks, Summer Music Series at the Olivas Adobe and numerous street fairs.  Ventura's thriving downtown boasts fine dining, eclectic shops, antique stores and trendy art galleries.  Upscale yet accessible defines the culture of this classic California Beach town.

Ventura's affordable lifestyle and easy commute to Santa Barbara have made it an extremely desirable option for those who work farther north.   Whether you are a first time buyer, looking for a second home by the sea or thinking of moving up, Ventura has homes and condos to fit your budget.   From spectacular view homes on the hill to great family neighborhoods on the East End, or that spacial beach bungalow, you'll find just the right home here in Ventura!
