About this home
Tucked into the highly desirable Hobson Heights neighborhood, Casa Azul is a 2 bed, 2 bath Mediterranean cottage from the 1920s with authentic character that unfolds slowly and stays with you. Behind the Picasso blue gate, a quiet front courtyard wrapped in birds of paradise and scented by citrus immediately softens the world outside. It is peaceful here, private, and a true buffer from the street. Step through the arched original front door into a bright, welcoming living room filled with natural light. Original wood floors, graceful arches, and beautifully washed wood trim give the space warmth and character, the kind of room you want to sit down in and stay awhile. Santa Barbara style plaster walls, wood beam details, and hand selected Moroccan inspired lighting create a collected, , personal feel the kind of place that feels thoughtfully layered over time rather than designed all at once.
The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, finished with Carrara marble countertops, a marble-tiled architectural niche that adds character and charm, a generous pantry, and a bay window looking out to the garden. From here, doors open directly to the south-facing outdoor dining deck, where meals stretch into long afternoons and evenings spent outside.
Living flows naturally outdoors, where a wraparound deck leads to a private backyard that feels peaceful and unpretentious. The established avocado tree, gas fire pit, grassy entertaining space, raised veggie boxes, and multiple seating areas create a setting that's equally suited to gatherings, quiet mornings or enjoying spectacular sunsets. Through the trees, there's a peek-a-boo view of the sparkling Pacific Ocean, a reminder of how close you are to the beach.
The bedrooms feel like true sanctuaries. Both are spacious, serene, and filled with natural light, with walk-in closets and wood-beam ceilings that add warmth and character. These are rooms designed for rest, calm, comfortable, and quietly beautiful. The primary bathroom is especially unique with a vaulted, Moroccan-inspired ceiling and skylight that fills the space with soft daylight.
A separate lower-level room, with its own entrance, offers flexibility as a home office, art studio, or guest space, tucked away and private, yet connected.
Throughout the home, modern updates have been made with care, including an updated electrical panel (to prepare for solar), new outlets and GFCIs, refinished hardwood floors, and a new Mitsubishi heat-pump HVAC system (2024) for central heating and air though the home benefits from cooling coastal breezes.
A permeable pea-gravel drive provides parking for multiple vehicles a rare and valuable feature on Poli Street along with a one-car garage. Previously approved plans for an attached second-story, ocean-view JADU (permits lapsed in 2025) offer future potential should the next owner wish to expand.
Despite its central midtown location, Casa Azul feels like a quiet oasis. Just beyond is the newly opened Ventura Hills Nature preserve, with sweeping ocean views and stunning sunsets, Cemetery Memorial Park and dog park, Midtown's thriving shops and restaurants, multiple schools, charming downtown, and the ocean itself, all close enough to enjoy, yet far enough away to preserve the home's peaceful atmosphere.
Casa Azul is the kind of home that invites you to slow down, open the doors, and settle in, a place with warmth, character, and a soul you can feel the moment you walk through the blue gate.
