Homes for Sale in Pierpont Village, Ventura

Pierpont at a glance

What sets Pierpont apart, and what to check before you buy here:

• Oceanfront or the back streets. Homes that face the ocean carry a significant premium over homes on the back streets, and where a home sits relative to the sand moves price more than anything else here.
• Beach cottages to full rebuilds. Condition and finish vary from block to block, sometimes from house to house, so a sale a few doors down may not be a fair comparison.
• The surf break. Pierpont has its own surf break, a real feature of the neighborhood rather than a marketing line.
• Coastal flood zone. Parts of Pierpont are mapped in a coastal flood zone, so check the zone for the exact address before you make an offer.

Pierpont Beach questions

Where is Pierpont Beach in Ventura?

Pierpont Beach is a beachfront neighborhood inside the City of Ventura, on the Pacific between Ventura Harbor to the south and the rest of the Ventura coastline to the north. You reach it from Harbor Boulevard, and its side streets run toward the sand. The Ventura Pier and the downtown Main Street area are a short distance up the coast.

Do Pierpont Beach homes need flood insurance?

It depends on the address and the flood zone it sits in. Under the federal rules of the National Flood Insurance Program (as of 2026), a mortgage from a federally regulated lender, or one backed by a federal agency, requires flood insurance on a home in a FEMA high-risk flood zone. The premium depends on the home itself, including its elevation, its distance to the water and what it would cost to rebuild, and it is a real part of the yearly cost of owning here. Get quotes early in your search so that cost is part of your budget from the start.

Can I renovate or expand a home in Pierpont Beach?

It depends on the lot and on what you want to build. Coastal development rules, overseen by the California Coastal Commission, can limit what changes and additions are allowed on a given parcel. If your plans depend on renovating or expanding, look up the rules for that parcel and the home’s permit history before you buy, because the answer changes what the property is worth to you.
