First time on the market in 50 years is this serenely private home and grounds designedand built in 1947. Located just south of San Marino's Mission District, this 2,750sf home was designed by the prolific San Marino architect Theodore Pletsch. Mr. Pletsch is known both for his residential and commercial designs in San Marino and Pasadena including several prominent homes on Lombardy, Rosalind, Orlando, Virginia, and Oak Grove, as well as many area storefronts and the San Marino Tribune building. The home is strategically set on one and one quarter stunningly landscaped acres designed by noted landscape architect Florence Yoch, who is credited with helping develop a distinctively Californian interpretation of classic European gardens. This traditional ranch style home exudes sophistication and elegance with large rooms, breathtaking garden views and complete privacy. The main home is comprised of a large living room plus sunroom, formal dining room, sunny breakfast room, a cozy wood paneled den and 3 bedrooms and 4 baths. The property also offers a 700sf Cabana with raised hearth fireplace, wet bar, full bath and original shuffle board court. An entertainer's delight.
