Property Description
Set in one of Pasadena's most coveted enclaves, moments from the Rose Bowl and the storied streets of Prospect Park, the Barnard House (1925) is a rare pedigree property: an English Period Revival designed by acclaimed Los Angeles firm Witmer & Watson whose principal, David Witmer, later served as co-chief architect of the Pentagon and built by master craftsman Fritz Ruppel, the artisan renowned for restoring California's historic missions, including San Juan Capistrano. His insistence on period authenticity is evident in every detail.Inside, original hardwood floors have been carefully restored rather than replaced, and natural light moves generously through every room, blurring the line between indoors and out. Each update has been made with restraint and intention honoring the home's century of craftsmanship while delivering the comfort today's buyer expects.Outside, the backyard unfolds as a private retreat, anchored by a sparkling pool and designed equally for quiet mornings and easy entertaining. A true piece of Pasadena's architectural heritage, ready for its next chapter.
