A sparkling pool framed by sweeping mountain views anchors the backyard, while a garden courtyard, and a tranquil pond and waterfall invite quiet moments just steps away.

Some homes are defined by their architecture. Others are defined by the lives lived within them. 760 Holladay Road represents both. Beyond its stately white façade in Pasadena's coveted Huntington Library District stands one of the city's most distinguished historic residences. Set back from the street on more than three quarters of an acre, noted architect Garret Van Pelt designed this Monterey Colonial Revival estate that gracefully blends East Coast elegance with the romance of California living. From the moment one enters, the home reveals itself through remarkable artistry. The original delicate wrought iron staircase, black walnut parquet floors, handcrafted millwork, richly paneled mahogany walls, period lighting, and beautiful diamond-patterned leaded-glass windows unveil an era when homes were crafted to endure. There is a graciousness here that feels almost lost to time with rooms made for conversation, verandas made for lingering, and quiet spaces where generations of family life have unfolded. Even the walls hold secrets. Concealed within the beautifully crafted paneling are discreet compartments, an enduring reminder of the original owner's passion for archery and a charming glimpse into the life of the home nearly a century ago. Beyond French doors the beautifully curated park like grounds become a private sanctuary. A magnificent canopy of mature trees and palms, flowering gardens and sweeping lawns surround a glistening pool with cascading spa, while a secluded tennis and basketball court is tucked among the greenery. Listen to birds among the palms, breathe in the sweet fragrance of citrus, feel the gentle California breeze across the veranda, and linger as the sun sets beyond the back courtyard. Here, the boundaries between home and garden seem to disappear, inviting a life of elegant celebrations, quiet family moments, and simple pleasures enjoyed in the beauty of nature. Ideally situated just north of The Huntington Library Art Museum and Botanical Gardens and just south of Caltech, near the storied Hale Solar Laboratory, the estate enjoys one of Pasadena's most coveted locations, surrounded by architecturally significant homes and enduring cultural landmarks. This is a rare opportunity to become the next steward of a remarkable Pasadena treasure, a home where beauty, craftsmanship, history, and legacy continue to inspire nearly a century after its creation.
