If New Yorkers flock to the Hamptons to escape the city, then Angelenos have the Ojai Valley. While the two destinations have their differences (East Coast vs. West Coast, beach town vs. mountain town), they both attract the rich and famous looking to escape the spotlight. And, they both have ultra-pricey real estate offerings.

Ojai, California’s most expensive home for sale now, newly listed last week, is seeking $17,495,000. This two-acre property, known as the Shippee Estate, is an impressive, freshly developed estate with a main residence, guest houses, cabanas, and workshops. Space is no issue, and it encourages occupants to spread out and get in a mellow frame of mind.

The design also imbues tranquility, along with the strong stamp of luxury. The main home, a contemporary that embraces minimalism and farmhouse inspiration, boast details like a 12-foot pivot door, walls of glass, white oak flooring, and custom millwork. In total, the compound offers 11,391 square feet of living space with six bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and five partial bathrooms. All of the buildings are just one level, making for an easy flow. Luscious landscaping is another common thread throughout the property. Expect to find a zen-inspired courtyard, olive trees, a pool and spa, and an outdoor kitchen.

Stars like Reese Witherspoon, Justin Baldoni, and Jason Segel have owned homes in Ojai while many more celebs have vacationed in the attractive area. Why? Perhaps because the peaceful town offers top restaurants and hotels for indulgent experiences, hiking trails for getting active, and gorgeous mountain views—just 75 miles north of L.A.

Neyshia Go of Sotheby’s International Realty holds the dazzling new listing.
