From the agent: “The creative brainchild of the prominent artistic couple Leslie and Nancy Watts, whose pedigrees included professional photography and museum curation in the Pasadena area. Built in 1946 of their own designs with aid from contractors and clear inspiration from Case Study homes of the time. From the street, a powerful slab foundation and privacy landscaping lead to the single-car garage, while paver stones meander through a woodsy expanse to the front entrance. The living, dining, and kitchen showcase the ideal open floor plan with walls of glass and sliding doors toward the manicured backyard. Both bedrooms have their own private outdoor areas and abound in period details. The backyard is outfitted with a detached studio sited to take advantage of the beauty of the outdoors, perfect for a new generation of artists to inhabit this retreat.”
