Property Description
Designed in 1928 by renowned architect Emmet Martin, this stately palazzo offers 4 formal bedrooms and 6 baths, plus a generously sized ground-floor bonus room with en suite bath that is currently used as a fifth bedroom. Modeled after the Medici villas and featured in Architectural Digest the year after it was built, the property combines old-world elegance with modern amenities and a practical floor plan. The home was commissioned by the owners of the Kay-Brunner Steel Casting Company and showcases stunning original architectural elements wrought ironwork, a handmade entrance gate, chandeliers, sconces, carved wooden doors, ornamental steelwork, and hardwood floors all intact and beautifully integrated throughout. A grand foyer and sweeping spiral staircase lead into the elegant living room with a classic marble fireplace and French doors opening to a large terrace with its own fireplace, ideal for romantic California evenings and indoor/outdoor entertaining. The formal dining room features dramatic wrought iron lighting and connects to a chef's kitchen with Thermador and Viking appliances, an oversized center island with breakfast bar, and a walk-in pantry. Adjoining the kitchen is a casual living area, and a staircase off this space leads to a storage basement. Completing the main level is a guest bathroom with pool access, a laundry room, and a flexible bonus room or fifth bedroom suite. Upstairs, a spacious landing leads to four bedroom suites. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, dual vanity, shower, spa tub, and a private office space leading to a serene balcony. A separate terrace offers the perfect setting for morning coffee or watching the Lacy Park July 4th fireworks. The grounds feature an outdoor fireplace lounge, lighted paddle tennis court/sports court, heated pool and spa, lush gardens, a fountain, two-car garage, and a circular driveway with ample parking. The home is close to Lacy Park, the Langham Hotel, and the Huntington Library, and situated in the award-winning San Marino school district.
