Secluded behind the original estate walls, this classically inspired Tuscan villa sited on a flat one acre parcel in the coveted South Arroyo neighborhood of Pasadena and South Pasadena. Designed by noted architect Reginald Johnson - featuring the principal residence, sequestered guest house, verdant grounds, grand pool and captivating gardens. A mix of the structured and elegant Italian Renaissance Revival, with a more approachable, relaxed living environment that embraces the necessities and desires of today. Owned by Pasadena luminaries for nearly a century, and now the home of an acclaimed fashion designer and his wife since 1998 - the 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom primary residence features voluminous space and height throughout with equally scaled original Palladian doors and windows which provide an abundance of light and air. Honed marble, rich plaster, period woods and premium paint finishes provide the material palette. The entry gallery with classical columns acts as an initial gathering space for the grand public viewing and entertaining areas: formal living room and adjoining library - both with fireplaces, powder room, and a formal dining room. All have direct access to outdoor patios, gardens and the expansive lawn beyond. Chef's kitchen and great room with casual seating and an adjacent butler's pantry. Catering prep, separate laundry room, two bedrooms and bathroom complete the lower level. The second level is divided into two distinct zones accessed from the central landing. Luxurious primary suite - with separate bedroom, dressing and sun rooms and walk-through closet and bath. Opposite is an additional bedroom suite with bath ensuite and adjoining sitting room, as well as an executive bedroom with bathroom and closet ensuite. Private one bedroom guest house with living room anchored by a fireplace, kitchen, bedroom and bath - all surrounded by its own hedged gardens. Swimmers pool, spacious pavilion, spa retreat, hidden rose garden and dining area with fireplace and grill. Lushly landscaped with sweeping lawns, mature specimen trees, secluded refuges and abundant water features. Motor court and carport for multiple vehicles. Viewing garden. An extremely private and exclusive offering.
