About This Home

As of May 2024

'Like having your own Huntington Gardens.' In 1956, architect Eugene Weston III crafted this Japanese-influenced Modernist residence in the distinctive Post & Beam style. A testament to masterful design, the home has been thoughtfully updated to preserve its tranquil allure. The entry unfolds through multi-pane oak doors into a spacious living and dining area defined by a singular beamed ceiling and expansive walls of glass. Throughout this area, gleaming hardwood floors accentuate a low, wide fireplace in the living space.From every vantage point within this elegant room, one can admire the captivating Japanese garden enveloping a rock-clad pool adorned with a waterfall. The remodeled kitchen boasts maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances, Caesar Stone countertops, and an inviting island bar. The serene primary suite, featuring two large walk-in closets, connects to a ceramic-tiled bath equipped with a Jacuzzi tub and dual sinks.The main house encompasses two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The lower level houses a renovated wine cellar transformed into two spacious rooms, a kitchenette, 1-1/2 baths, laundry facilities, and ample storage. Nestled in Pasadena's enchanting Lower Arroyo, this residence epitomizes a harmonious blend of modern luxury and timeless design.
