Nestled in the charming city of Pasadena, celebrated for its rich architectural heritage, one of the best-kept mid-century modern gems is hitting the market for the first time since 1982. Designed by renowned architect John Galbraith and completed in 1952, this 3,877 sq. ft. home was his first project in Pasadena and has only had three owners. Situated within an exclusive gated community of seven homes known as ''The Point,'' this architectural treasure has been carefully preserved with two major remodels, both overseen by Galbraith himself, maintaining the integrity of its mid-century design.The first remodel, completed in 1993, introduced a central library, while the second in 2002 brought a full kitchen renovation and the addition of a spacious great room--perfect for family gatherings and casual entertaining. Modern updates, including dual-zone HVAC and water heaters, were also added during the remodels.This home is meticulously crafted to impress, featuring vertical redwood paneling inside and out, flying walls, burnished walnut accents, mitered glass corners, and floor-to-ceiling windows that blend indoor and outdoor living--hallmarks of mid-century design. Hardwood floors flow through most of the home, with slate flooring in the entryway, which features a glass wall that floods the space with natural light and views of the surrounding landscape. The living room offers a fireplace and a stunning wood-slatted ceiling, crafted by mid-century artisan Ernie Greenway.The public rooms provide direct access to outdoor spaces via glass sliders, and the great room opens to a concrete patio that leads seamlessly to a rectangular swimming pool with rounded edges. The home includes three bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom, along with an additional full bathroom. Built-in features and ample storage throughout echo the timeless design of the era.Set on a beautifully landscaped 3.96-acre lot, offering a combination of flat and canyon views, the property is a private retreat, surrounded by mature oak trees, succulents, and drought-tolerant plants. A two-car garage with built-in cabinetry adds convenience. Enjoy breathtaking views of the San Gabriel Valley, stretching all the way to the Palos Verdes Hills and Los Angeles. This is a rare chance to own an authentic mid-century masterpiece.
