Description
A masterful reinterpretation of Mid-Century Modern architecture, this exceptional La Canada residence honors its architectural heritage while embracing contemporary luxury. The main residence features 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and was transformed through a down-to-the-studs renovation in 2017, then thoughtfully enhanced over nearly a decade. The result offers the quality of modern construction with the warmth and character of an established home. A standing-seam metal roof, fire-rated wood cladding, expansive Fleetwood steel-framed doors and windows, and clean architectural lines create a striking yet timeless exterior while reflecting the quality and intention found throughout. Inside, abundant natural light and walls of glass create a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. Designed for both grand-scale entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the open-concept floor plan flows effortlessly between sophisticated indoor and outdoor gathering spaces. At the heart of the home, the chef's kitchen features a professional-grade Viking range and double Sub-Zero refrigeration. Three fireplaces throughout add warmth and architectural character while creating inviting spaces for gathering. Outside, the property unfolds as a series of beautifully designed entertaining environments. The main terrace features a custom cast-in-place concrete outdoor kitchen with built-in BBQ, island, and generous al fresco dining area. A sculptural stairway leads to the elevated pool terrace, where a saltwater pool and spa are framed by sweeping Verdugo Mountain views. A second outdoor dining area, built-in gas fireplace, separate fire pit lounge, and mature layered landscaping create a private, resort-inspired setting. Adding exceptional versatility is a fully permitted and beautifully remodeled detached studio guest residence, complete with a full kitchen, full bathroom, and in-unit laundry. Completely self-contained, it offers an ideal setting for multigenerational living, extended-stay guests, a private office or entertainment retreat, or potential supplemental income. Located within the highly regarded La Canada Unified School District, this distinctive property presents a rare combination of iconic Mid-Century architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, flexible living, celebrated schools, and effortless indoor-outdoor living in one of La Canada's most sought-after communities.
