Moving to and Living in Ventura Pt.1 – Home location options

So if you’re here today, you’re probably considering a move to Ventura and wondering what it’s like to live here. I want to give you an overview of the different types of home location options you can find in Ventura, as I’ve found it to be one of the most diverse in the options for places you can live.

And with our weather at around 73 degrees pretty much all year long, compared to say Los Angeles in August which can be 85 degrees or more, it’s no wonder that we’ve got options that take advantage of the wonderful sea air and views.

Let’s check them out!

First stop, of course, are waterfront and beach front properties. Why live near the ocean if you don’t check these out! Here in Ventura we say homes on the streets leading to the beach are “on the lanes.” Then, there’s the homes that are beach front! Or one or two back… Who wouldn’t love that?

We also have the Ventura Keys, where you can have a home on the water, with a boat dock!

One of the things I love, is that we have a large selection of historic homes… You can find them in Hobson Heights, or in Midtown, or on the Avenue. Really, you can find wonderful older homes throughout Ventura!

Another favorite place for people to live in Ventura is in a view home. Many properties in Ventura allow for 180 degree views of downtown and the ocean. Here’s a view from Skyline. And another from just above Downtown!

And unlike many communities along the coast, Ventura also has many options for ranches, and agriculture which add to its unique offerings. So while you will find traditional homes, townhomes, and condos, and many other offerings you might find in other cities in California, I truly feel Ventura offers residents so many amazing opportunities to pick the type of home locations you’ve always dreamed of, and the incredible weather to boot!
