About This Home

As of August 2024

Experience the serenity of this property with timeless style and appeal in San Marino's coveted Huntington Library Estate district. Meticulously and comprehensively remodeled as sanctuary for contemporary life, rooms throughout the house connect to a tranquil Asian-inspired landscape. Elegant layout of three end-suite bedrooms created an abundance of private spaces rich with cherry wood floors and bathed in natural light. These include a custom floor-to-ceiling library, spacious living and dining rooms, flex areas for entertaining or office use and a traditional Japanese tatami room that may be used for meditation or as a fourth bedroom.
A gourmet kitchen sits at the heart of the house where culinary delights can be enjoyed around the oversized island and Miele appliances. The Master suite sited in the east wing creates its own private retreat with a sitting area overlooking the garden, a luxury bathroom completed with jacuzzi and steam shower, and an outdoors deck surrounded by trees. Long wrap-around verandas line the eastern and southern walls of the house, where the artisanal Japanese tea house overlooks a well-manicured garden oasis. An adjoining entertainment area features a built-in outdoor kitchen.
This home offers a unique and seamless blend of contemporary luxury and peaceful living, and is ideally situated within walking distance to the area's most prestigious cultural and educational institutions. The location gives unparalleled access to the Huntington Library, Cal Tech, old town Pasadena and the greater San Gabriel Valley, Highly rated district schools Valentine Elementary, Huntington Middle School and San Marino High School are only a few blocks away.
