895 Hillcrest Place

// Paul Masters House, Bob Ray Offenhauser, AIA, 1957 //Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the one of Pasadena's most desirable neighborhoods, this single-level Mid-Century Modern home was designed by renowned architect Bob Ray Offenhauser in 1957. One of his earlier works, the property displays many of the characteristics for which Offenhauser would later be known, particularly in his contemporary designs: clean lines, symmetric spaces, high ceilings and blurred interior and exterior boundaries. Situated on a large, slightly raised lot, with circular driveway, the home is sited to allow for gated front and rear gardens. South bedrooms and kitchen securely open to gardens and courtyard. Bordered by mature trees and vegetation ensuring privacy and security, common rooms and primary suite open to larger rear yard with pool, formal gardens, fountain and lawn. Featuring four bedrooms and five baths, on a single level, the home is perfect for those downsizing from larger homes, yet is large enough for families with children attending nearly Polytechnic School or Caltech. Just a short walk to the Langham Hotel, surrounded by some of Pasadena's most well-known architectural homes, 895 Hillcrest Place allows for the best in Southern California living and entertaining.
