700 Laguna Rd, Pasadena
Set on a nearly 20,000-square-foot lot with views of nearby Johnston Lake, this gated 1925 New England treasure has been lovingly enhanced with modern amenities.
Open the Dutch front door to a living room with two-story beamed cathedral ceiling, spectacular floor-to-ceiling windows and slate hearth fireplace. Its gleaming dark oak floors extend throughout the home.
The spacious kitchen features top-of-the-line Viking and Miele appliances, including dual refrigerators and ovens. A butler’s pantry is served by a dumbwaiter linked to the garage. Nearby are a large dining area and a family room with a Colorado river rock fireplace and French doors to the gardens.
Completing this level are a large en suite bedroom; an extra room with half bath and direct pool access; and a spacious laundry, plumbed for dual washers and dryers.
Enter the second floor master retreat via a grand sitting room with fireplace. Beyond, the amenities include a large bath with grand Jacuzzi tub and dual vanity. A second large suite has a roomy walk-in closet with built-in safe. Across the musicians’ balcony overlooking the living room is a third suite, inspired by 1,001 Arabian Nights.
The carefully tended backyard embodies privacy and tranquility. Two patio areas with lake and meadow views, a built-in entertainment area and fire pit, and an inviting dark-bottomed lap pool and spa with water feature make this a wonderful gathering place.
The guesthouse features living room, bedroom, full bath and kitchen. The living room is accented by a stunning beamed ceiling, two stained glass windows and a fireplace. A four-car garage completes this beautiful compound.
