Welcome home to this sophisticated single-level 1951 mid-century ranch style home in the Huntington Library district of San Marino. The current owners, the 2nd owners of the property, have retained the character features while upgrading and renovating the property over the last 20+ years. The home has clean lines, spacious rooms, and plenty of storage. This home shows pride of ownership throughout. Beyond the welcoming entry is a spacious living room and features large windows and a gas/wood burning fireplace. The living room flows into the formal dining room which offers lovely garden views. The chef's kitchen, designed by Cynthia Bennett, offers every amenity one needs in a modern kitchen, including an island with a breakfast bar, walk-in food pantry, and built-in appliances (Sub Zero refrigerator, Thermador oven + Thermador 6 burner cooktop, Miele dishwasher, and Ventahood). Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious family room completely remodeled as both a family room and a home theater featuring a gas and wood burning fireplace, built-in surround-sound speakers, built-in entertainment unit and built-in bookcase. Three bedrooms are located along a private bedroom corridor on one side of the house, with the primary suite overlooking the tranquil rear yard. The fourth bedroom is situated on the other side of the house with an adjacent full bath. The bathrooms have all been upgraded with high-end finishes. Additional features include oak hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and a Calif. Basement. The laundry has additional storage, a sink, and washer and dryer units concealed behind cabinet doors. Upgrades include Pella and Marvin double paned windows and doors, upgraded electrical panel, partial copper plumbing, indoor and outdoor speakers, central HVAC, custom closets, and security system and cameras. The professionally landscaped grounds are stunning and feature mature trees and offer sustainability and privacy. The rear yard is a serene setting and includes new concrete patios in which to relax and entertain. Upgrades include outdoor landscape lighting in the front and rear yards, 12-zone automatic sprinkler system, and updated fencing and gates. Down the long concrete and brick bordered driveway and beyond the automatic driveway gate is the two-car garage with a built-in workbench, and cabinets. This home exudes warmth and provides a sense of calm in a quiet neighborhood.
