Here, the boundaries between home and garden seem to disappear, inviting a life of elegant celebrations, quiet family moments, and simple pleasures enjoyed in the beauty of nature. Ideally situated just north of The Huntington Library Art Museum and Botanical Gardens and just south of Caltech, near the storied Hale Solar Laboratory, the estate enjoys one of Pasadena's most coveted locations, surrounded by architecturally significant homes and enduring cultural landmarks.
