Property Description
A grand 4,857 SF estate that is just waiting to be rediscovered & reimagined. The six bedroom, six bath residence, with an add'l two bedroom chauffeur's suite, has been held by the same family for half a century. The 1916 home has been attributed to the Foss Designing & Building Co, who were sought-after during this period of architectural revival & have done several notable homes in our country club neighborhood. The level of craftsmanship showcases the care & attention seen during the Arts & Crafts movement w/ a push for handcrafted design married w/ natural, not machine-made, materials such as stone, brick, stained glass & wood. This is seen throughout the house via its exterior stepped plaster columns, interior hand-milled woodwork as well as the wide staircase, framed by geometric cut-outs, on the ornate balusters. The living area is wrapped in viewing areas incl. the large front, arched veranda, a light-filled, sun porch, a center atrium, & a long, upper-level sleeping porch. There are hardwood floors, period fixtures, tall crown moldings & custom built-ins. Another amenity is a recording studio that is awaiting customization. Perched on an expansive lot & sited on a gently sloped knoll that offers incredible panoramic views of the majestic San Gabriels that rise in the background. A long driveway circles the property & welcomes you in. This is an incredible opportunity to restore an architectural treasure to its former glory as a crown jewel of our foothills.
