About This Home
Unveiled to the market for the first time in nearly 90 years, this one-of-a-kind Altadena compound is where architectural history meets boundless potential. At its heart, a Calvin Straub–designed residence anchors three distinct structures, totaling approximately 3,000 sq. ft., each harmoniously arranged around a lush garden and tranquil pond. From the upper residence, enjoy sweeping breezes and peekaboo vistas of Downtown Los Angeles, glowing on the horizon. This estate invites its next steward to restore its mid-century pedigree, expand its architectural narrative, or craft an entirely new vision across the grounds. Just minutes from Pasadena, JPL, and the Rose Bowl, these offering blends heritage, lifestyle, and location in one distinguished opportunity. A rare canvas for dreamers, designers, and collectors alike
