The residence was built in 1928 by one of Pasadena’s most revered historic architects, Myron Hubbard Hunt, and sits on nearly two acres overlooking the Colorado Street Bridge.

A solid bronze front door welcomes you into the gallery, which conveys the opulence found throughout. At one end of the gallery rests the grand living room designed for lavish entertaining with an ornate coffered ceiling, a massive fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows. A wall of French doors leads out to the elegant grounds where a veranda extends out to a series of fountains cascading down to the pool and the romantic chandelier-lit pavilion. Back inside, the formal dining room enjoys abundant light with floor to ceiling windows, a large stone-faced fireplace and gorgeous silk wallpaper. The handsome library is paneled in rich walnut and is flanked by two fireplaces, one on each end of the room, perfect for more intimate gatherings.
