Architect-designed and built in 1963, this home is an excellent example of the mid-century aesthetic. Stacked block, clerestory windows, deep overhangs and walls of glass yield a clean, sleek, home with excellent interior-exterior sight lines. Carefully considered renovations and quality finishes such as custom solid walnut cabinets, Wolf/Sub Zero appliances and hardwood floors bring the home into the 21st century while staying true to its classic, modern roots. Extensive mechanical upgrades, a commercial chiller/boiler system, evaporative coolers and a low roof line make the home functional and efficient. The 2/3 acre lot with specimen palms, mature hardwoods, lagoon pool and herb gardens create a quiet, park-like setting. The location in the niche subdivision of Grove Park Estates with its large lots and custom homes provides easy access to Arcadia's numerous amenities including award winning Veritas, all at an exceptional value. The 3800 square foot main house, 200 square foot guest casita, double RV garage, gated 3-car carport, and numerous storage rooms combine to create a stylish, comfortable home in an active, family-friendly neighborhood.
