They don’t make ’em like this anymore. This mid-century modern three bedroom home in Arroyo View Estates area of Highland Park was designed by Southern California architect P.J. McCarty. McCarty would later go on to be Los Angeles’s principal architect at City Hall, where he ushered in the great restorations of some of the city’s best buildings in ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s. Now, in 2016, one of his very own hidden gems is waiting to be restored!
From the street, the home looks picturesque in its setting, perched on a hillside street, with palm trees and sunny blue skies aplenty.
Inside the home, you’ll be impressed by the slim, long lines of steel, walls of glass, tall ceilings, and the overall sense that you’ve just stepped into a mid-century masterpiece.
The entry, living room, and dining areas all flow together offering a large and flexible space for entertaining.
Downstairs there’s also a den and family room with easy outdoor access, hardwood floors, en suite bath, and a lovely brick fireplace.
The master bedroom has abundant natural light and calming views of the South Pasadena hillsides.
Two more large bedrooms and 2.5 baths, plus laundry area, a solarium, and a lot of other unique and one-of-a-kind touches complete the home.
The kitchen enjoys easy access to a patio and private backyard. The large kitchen has plenty of cabinet space, a brick oven, and a breakfast area.
And did I mention this enticing home is priced at only $365 per square foot? At 2,600 square feet that’s quite a deal! This unique mid-century home and its private grounds are like a clean canvas ready for you to create your own masterpiece of design and architecture!
