"California's Graceland" A piece of country music history He bought the land in 1960 and built his dream house to his exact specifications, walking the rooms and deciding on exact placement and layout. This famous house sits behind two security gates on six very private acres of land between Ventura and Ojai, the ranch-style home is set among 100- year-old oak trees as well as huge cypress and walnut trees Johnny planted. The most breathtaking feature of the property is the 360-degree view that goes as far as the eyes can see. The estate is 5,000 square feet, it was the singer’s “beloved escape sanctuary” high above the tiny town, of Casitas Springs, just minutes from Ojai and away from the hustle of Hollywood. The Cash house and stories about Johnny are folklore among Ojai locals. Ojai is proud to claim him as part of the rich history of this town. A dedicated billboard honoring him stands on the bend as you come into town. John’s ideas are still very much a part of the home, including the country-motif family room with curved brick fireplace, exposed wood beams, glamorous gold glitter game room, custom ranch-style wood cabinetry, original wall-mounted turntable, and intercom system. We describe it as Mid-Century Western Glam There are two large primary suites. The “JC-BLACK Suite” features a stunning expansive scenic view from its bay windows, a black sparkle ceiling, drop-in black bathtub, and a black commode. Vivian’s Hollywood-style room is the “V-PINK-Suite” finished in glamorous layers of pink and a gold glitter ceiling. On the opposite side of the house is the timelessly preserved famous wood-paneled music studio where Johnny sequestered himself to write many of his hit songs. This iconic California ranch property was designed by Johnny Cash. The house was custom-built by the Man in Black and is now available to host a few lucky Cash fans. The celebrated property has been carefully maintained. Walk into the restored time capsule that pays tribute to the legendary musician. The outside of the ranch house features breathtaking 360-degree views, a pool, hot tub, Western Poolside Bar, 2-BBQ areas the JC BBQ which is a notable area tucked high away and sits overlooking the entire valley below with captivating views. This was one of Johnny’s favorite hangouts where he was known to grill a mean hot dog and shoot his guns. He taught his daughters to target practice from this very spot! We look forward to the creative process of this very special home ! ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Pool ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 6 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 4.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near the marina - Near the sea - On a river ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 10% of profits reinvested in community and sustainability - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Garden - Living plant wall - Local artist showcase - Locally-owned and organized tours and activities - Recycling - Unit size: 5,000 square feet - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/88000000/87740000/87733100/87733093/w529h683x258y0-cfaa6730.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 4 bedroom villa with epic views near downtown Ojai Ventura - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 20 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-12&endDate=2025-12-13&selected=87733093&PinnedHotelID=87733093&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/120000000/119350000/119349200/119349124/a0f5acf0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Ojai Mountain Ridge Estate, Private Ojai Vineyard Villa Ventura County - Ocean view - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-12&endDate=2025-12-13&selected=119349124&PinnedHotelID=119349124&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101340000/101335500/101335492/w496h670x264y4-e01cd3a1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Relaxing views, next door to the trail.

The pool area was spacious and where we enjoyed getting together. ##### Donna E. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Sherri N. Jun 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### great place we were in the area for our son’s wedding and our family chose to stay here. it was a great place for family and friends to gather. it was clean and spacious. the host was attentive and the home was properly stocked except for non-flavored coffee pods...just a little oversight. we did bring our favorite coffee but could not brew it since there wasn’t a conventional coffee maker... important but not a deal breaker. the only constructive feedback would be to be more forthcoming (in listing) about the pool not being heated. there is a charge per day. in addition, there is a charge to heat the pool one day in advance since 24 hours is needed get the pool warm. the host waived this since it was another charge we weren’t aware of. we very much enjoyed the house and location. it was private and we would stay here again. ##### Sherri N.
