From the agent: "Located in Pasadena’s prestigious Oak Knoll area, this thoughtfully designed contemporary home is the perfect venue for large-scale entertaining. Step into the light-infused living room with 22-foot vaulted ceilings that extend seamlessly into the private backyard. The space flows into the grand dining room with a dual-sided fireplace and spills into the gourmet kitchen with a 17-foot marble waterfall island and Sub-Zero/Viking appliances. Newly updated efficiency features include: drought-tolerant landscaping with drip system, a tankless water heater, whole house solar power, tinted windows/skylights, and LED lighting."

At the entry, a darling little freestanding library extends a warm, communal welcome, while native vegetation spans the front lawn, blending the home with its lush surrounding neighborhood of Oak Knoll.

An elongated, marble waterfall island anchors the open kitchen, which is located just steps away from the primary living spaces.

Glazing spans the rear facade, offering direct access to the backyard.

Hardwood floors continue into the six bathrooms, all of which feature new fixtures.

Just beyond the fire pit is a turnkey guesthouse, complete with a kitchenette, bedroom, and bath. 

Another view of the backyard showcases the home’s pristine entertaining spaces.
