Situated within steps of the world famous Huntington Library & Botanical Gardens, this grand Colonial Revival masterpiece is an inspiring example of the work of renowned architect, Roland Coate. The impressive wrought iron gates usher you into a private, cobblestone circular driveway/motor court and a manicured front yard with mature landscaping. The majestic north-facing façade with classic double doors invites one into an elegant foyer adorned by groin-vaulted ceiling, a sparkling crystal chandelier, stunning marble floor, and majestic arches. Off of the entry are the coatroom and a powder room for the convenience of guests. To the right of the foyer is the grand parlor/living room featuring a handsome marble fireplace, a marble-counter wet-bar area with a secured wine closet, and a bank of breathtaking arched French doors leading to a dramatic loggia, thereby extending the California indoor/outdoor lifestyle. To the left of the foyer is the breathtaking, architectural hallway leading to a classic step-down formal dining room featuring vintage magnesite flooring with medallion inserts, coffered ceiling, and two arched French doors that open to the outdoors for large functions. The hallway continues to a gracious library showcasing a fireplace with exquisite oriental carved wood mantle and antique screen, built-in bookcases, and a hidden mirrored wet bar closet with original brass wall mounted faucet and sink. Adjacent to the formal dining room is the spacious butler’s pantry with dual sinks, extensive cabinet space, and a built-in desk adjoining the gourmet kitchen and breakfast area. The chef’s kitchen includes double refrigerators, double convection ovens, dual islands with designer granite slab, and special lighting. Off of the breakfast area is the enormous family room with direct access to the oversized 3 car finished garage. The family room is highlighted by a tray ceiling with indirect lighting and a unique indoor/outdoor wet bar. The wall of palladium windows and French doors in the family room let in light and create a natural extension to the outdoors. Visible from the family room are two formal rose gardens, pool & sports zone, and the expansive patio with multiple seating areas and a backdrop of Italian cypress and lush citrus fruits, perfect for outdoor entertaining and summer barbeques. A maid’s quarter, full bath, and laundry room complete this extensive first level. The main grand staircase has original magnasite tiles and wrought iron handrails, extending a gracious invitation to the 2nd floor. The amazing landing offers another wonderful conversational area under the skylight. There are 5 bedroom suites; all feature high ceilings and sweeping view of the lovely grounds. The west wing showcases the master suite with an enormous cedar lined walk-in closet and a luxurious bath with designer marble tiles throughout, dual sinks, a spa tub, and an oversized shower. The 2nd suite has an adorable chandelier, a pair of crystal sconces, and a full bath with marble wall over tub and shares a huge sun deck overlooking the sweeping backyard with the master suite. The east wing hosts 3 additional suites; one features double closets and artful brass lighting fixtures. The other 2 suites are connected, one of which is a 2nd master with a generous L-shaped bathroom highlighted by dual sinks, spa tub, and wall to wall closet space. The light -filled suite is flanked by windows and has a private balcony and outside stairs accessing the rear yard. This truly exceptional property on level, magnificent, professionally landscaped grounds harkens back to an era of unmatched elegance and is your rare opportunity to own a real architectural gem in San Marino!!!
