Description
Designed by renowned modern Architect A. Quincy Jones, the "Steel and Glass House", is a brilliance of design for the family who enjoys entertaining and living in an architecturally significant home. Featured in many publications, the house is nestled in a cul de sac at the end of a private road with spectacular Rose Bowl, JPL, golf course, and Pasadena city views from every room. The design is a creation of the melodic connection between indoors and outdoors. The entrance path to the house is paved in polished black granite panels that shimmer like still water. The effect of water carries into the entrance patio with lily pad stepping stones, black pebbles, and river rock. When entering the house, you see the interplay of triangles amid the soaring 35 ft ceiling and walls of glass that flood the space with natural light. The spacious open main level flows seamlessly into a central dining area perfect for hosting vibrant gatherings or intimate dinners. After dinner lounge areas offer unguarded scenic views as backdrops to conversations. The gourmet kitchen boasts high-end appliances and restored cabinetry to inspire culinary creativity. Retreat to the stylish primary suite in the private wing with an en-suite bathroom and balcony with views. Central to many parts of the house are glass walled walkways, gardens of inspiration, and a magical waterfall pouring down from a steel spout more than 8 feet above into a blue tiled indoor flowing koi pond. Located just minutes from Pasadena's vibrant dining, shopping, and cultural attractions, this exceptional property captures the essence of significant California living. Don't miss the rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history after a painstaking restoration and fill the house with your personal collections. Schedule a private curated tour today. Furniture may be included.
