About This Home

As of March 2024

Midcentury architectural situated in the heart of Pasadena's San Rafael Hills. Beautifully designed and meticulously renovated, this iconic residence has original influence from the celebrated duo of Buff and Hensman. Situated on a spacious lot and elevated above the street, this home offers a seamless blend of indoor-outdoor living with sophisticated design that honors the original aesthetics of the home without sacrificing modern comforts. This three-bedroom, three-bathroom trophy home showcases floor-to-ceiling windows that offer an abundance of natural light and incredible views of the San Gabriel Mountains. Warm wood-paneled ceilings and beams, a stone fireplace, and elegant bathrooms are just some of the features of this home. A spacious second downstairs living room flows seamlessly to the pristinely landscaped yard with many native plants. The home's midcentury roots endure, but have been updated for contemporary living. This is a unique opportunity to own an exceptional example of an architectural home in the heart of one the Eastside's most coveted neighborhoods. A perfect combination of quality, style, and historical pedigree that is rare to find and nearly impossible to duplicate.
