Property Description
Inspired by noted modern architect Ray Kappe, this 1973 two-acre estate blends exceptional architectural design with indoor/outdoor living. The one-of-a-kind retreat utilizes the surrounding natural elements beautifully to create unsurpassed privacy and tranquility. The intriguing front walkway showcases a serene tropical garden, which leads to oversized double bronze doors. Upon entry, one is greeted with natural maple floors, accented by Brazilian slate. The sunken living room features a soaring floor-to-ceiling fireplace, with views of the garden, a reflection pond, and Zen-like water features. The kitchen encompasses stainless steel appliances, massive countertops of blue pearl granite, cherry wood cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, souring redwood ceilings, and an oversized center island with breakfast seating. Adjacent to the kitchen is a formal dining room (with views of the garden and pond), a separate light-filled breakfast room (with garden and city views), a large comfortable open family room featuring a redwood fireplace, a sizeable wet bar, and a separate butler's pantry. A convenient powder room is located near the entry. Upstairs is the 3-room master retreat featuring dramatic souring redwood ceilings, floor-to-ceiling built-ins, a lavish master bathroom, with a private Zen Garden, a sunken tub, and a dressing room with generous closets and a plethora of make-up mirrors. Two additional bedroom suites with garden views and entrances, as well as a 4th bedroom/study with unique Shoji screen doors and fantastic natural light complete the upstairs floor plan. The storage/workshop rooms, and 2 garages (one of which is nearly 40' in depth) are spectacular. The bonus three rooms, built-in cabinetry, and work space offer many possibilities (wine cellar, fleet parking, studio, etc.). A dramatically bright and oversized solarium, which showcases sunken gardens and ponds, and features views of the Pacific, is a gateway to the lovely grounds. Decking, patios, and quaint walkways are nicely perched around the property, overlooking the natural surroundings and the gorgeous canyon and city views. The quiet and very private gardens have multiple seating areas and are absolutely perfect for entertaining and/or serene relaxation. The property's beautiful grounds are highlighted by mature vegetation and tranquil water features. Surrounded by the beauty and modern conveniences that La Canada Flintridge has to offer, this perfectly located secluded sanctuary is ideal.
