Step back in time upon entering this Mid-century Modern classic built in 1960. Located in a highly esteemed neighborhood of West Pasadena, this masterpiece was designed by Robert E. Bennett, son of renowned architect Cyril Bennett. The Bennett legacies include the Pasadena Civic Auditorium and the Raymond Theater. This period home evokes an emotion of history harkening on the era of John F. Kennedyâ€™s election and Elvis Presleyâ€™s service in the US Army. Architectural appointments reflective of this time are carefully featured throughout the home. The property offers terrazzo and polished concrete flooring and extensive use of glass, all contributing to a sense of open space, light, and clean lines. The home summons an indoor/outdoor living appeal with walls of glass opening to a lovely yard, elegant pool and spa and a vintage conversation pit. Blending seamlessly with a beautifully updated kitchen, this fabulous indoor/outdoor allure fashions a sophisticated ambiance. In addition to 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, period touches such as hidden cabinets in the wood paneled dining room walls give this home a true authentic appeal. There is a warm and commanding library constructed of the wood paneling preserved from the original boardroom at the historic 1st National Bank building on Colorado Boulevard in Pasadena.
The property also features a family room off of the kitchen, a two-car garage and a wonderful feeling of privacy on the property.
