3 A ROLAND COATE MASTERPIECE Situated within steps of the world famous Huntington Library & Botanical Gardens, this grand Colonial Revival masterpiece is an inspiring example of the 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 north-facing façade sprucely lined with Italian cypress and the classic double doors invite 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 a coatroom and a powder room for the convenience of guests. To the right of the foyer is the stately parlor/living room featuring a handsome marble fireplace, a unique built-in bar area with a secured wine cellar, and a bank of breathtaking arched French doors leading to a dramatic loggia, thereby extending the California indoor/outdoor lifestyle. Beyond another set of French doors on the west end of the living room is the conversational garden with an ornate birdbath where friends can gather and admire the amazing collection of rare stones. To the left of the foyer is the architectural hallway leading to the elegant step down formal dining room featuring original flooring with antique quarry tiles & 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 brass sink. The hallway concludes at the eastern side of the property where a substantial cutting rose garden is located. Adjacent to the formal dining room is the open 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 convention 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 well equipped 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 open patio with multiple

4 seating areas and a backdrop of Italian cypress and espaliered citrus, 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 quarry tiles and wrought iron handrails, extending a gracious invitation to the 2nd floor. The amazing landing offers another wonderful conversational area under the skylight. Each upstairs bedroom is a suite with an attached full bath and has high ceilings and sweeping view of the lovely grounds. The west wing features 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 expansive 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 bath featuring dual sinks, spa tub, and wall to wall closet spaces. This light -filled suite is flanked by windows and has a private balcony and outside stairs accessing the rear yard.
