About This Home

Perched on approximately 1.5 acres in the Langham Huntington enclave, this is a landmark Mid-Century Modern compound that celebrates glass, wood, and stone in harmony with sweeping garden and city-light vistas. Designed by noted architect Harold Zook, the residence showcases expansive window walls, crafted mahogany accents, and signature Bouquet Canyon stonework. An inviting foyer leads to voluminous living and dining spaces oriented to landscaped courtyards, while a catering-scale kitchen anchors a casual breakfast area and a generous family room with pool views. The private primary suite enjoys treetop panoramas, a sitting room, and dual dressing rooms/baths; four additional bedroom suites provide exceptional flexibility. Recent improvements by the current owner include a full remodel of the downstairs bedroom and new flooring throughout the home. Resort amenities span a sparkling pool, true north-south tennis court, and immersive gardens, complemented by skylights, dual-zone HVAC, security system, delivery reception area, potting shed, a four-car garage, and gated entry. A rare offering of scale, privacy, and pedigree in one of Pasadena’s most sought-after locations.
