About this single-family home
Midcentury modern architecture in California was cultivated in part by the award winning Pasadena-based architects Ladd & Kelsey who are tied to many of the iconic buildings of Los Angeles modern architecture - including but not limited to the Norton Simon Museum, the Busch Gardens in Van Nuys, and the master plan and buildings for CalArts in Valencia. Thorton Ladd designed this serene midcentury home in 1949 and it features all the wonderful architectural details one would expect including walls of glass, skylights, cement floors, high ceilings, and a well-designed floor plan. There are two large patios – one in front and one in the rear - offering solitude and privacy. The one off the kitchen features a lovely cactus garden and the soothing sounds of a fountain spilling into a Koi pond, while the other off the living room is larger and offers multiple places to entertain. There is also a large flat area at the top of the rear terraced yard that has a nice vegetable garden and a European-style pea gravel patio. A detached three car garage allows for ample parking and/or storage. Located on a private lane in the beautiful foothills of Sierra Madre with close proximity to the town's charming restaurants, hiking trails, excellent schools, parks, markets and shops, this home is an oasis awaiting its next fortunate owner.
