About This Home

As of June 2019

Truly a treasure of Sierra Madre! Wrought iron gates enclose the European style hedged entry that leads to a grand staircase of Austrian tile. An Austrian immigrant, Karl Graf, commissioned a European artisan to design this 1925 masterpiece which is often viewed as a Mediterranean or Spanish architecture. Mr. Graf fancied himself to be royalty & commissioned the 'Coat of Arms' paintings in the grand entry. Other coveted features such as 2 fireplaces & a fountain with Batchelder tiles and gum-wood paneling throughout the lower floor add to the old world charm & character. The living room, formal dining room & master suite are grand in both elegance & size. Notable features: arched doorways, impressive gum wood doors, coved ceilings, double staircase, 9' ceilings, pool, pool house, 2 ponds & a charming 1 bedroom guest house.
