Discover the Lunkenheimer House, a historic estate in Pasadena designed by the acclaimed architect Joseph J. Blick. This Mission Revival Arts & Crafts masterpiece seamlessly blends classic charm with modern comforts. The gated home is surrounded by tall hedges and welcomes you to a sprawling lawn filled with oak and palm trees, featuring an elongated driveway. Spanning over 12,000 square feet on a 1.12-acre lot, this home boasts 8 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms.You are greeted by a dramatic entryway featuring 17th-century Chinese fretwork swinging doors, leading to spacious interiors that are flooded with natural light from the many windows throughout. The interiors are adorned with mahogany and oak paneling, Grueby Faience and Batchelder tile fireplaces, and original brass hardware. The chef's kitchen features Brazilian granite countertops, a Wolf six-burner stove, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a spacious butler's pantry. Recent renovations include updated plumbing, wiring, air conditioning, and a new copper roof. It was rebuilt in 1994 from studs up, and the full foundation was reinforced with structural steel added to the wood frame of each floor, exceeding the state earthquake related construction mandates. The beautiful outdoor living space includes a stunning saltwater pool, spa, outdoor patio area, koi pond with a waterfall, and built-in planters. Not to be overlooked, the grounds also include a guest house, a 924-square-foot basement, a fully finished attic, a playroom/study space, and much more.This estate is a true gem, offering ample opportunities and the chance to make it your own!
