Welcome to this exceptional La Canada family compound with a real tennis court, competition sized pool, pool house, and large guest house on a rare flat lot custom built by the current owners in 1991 for their large family and friends to enjoy. Soon after passing through the front security gate, you drive up the long private driveway to the prominent front entrance and walk through the leaded glass surrounded double doors into the 24' tall remarkable foyer. You immediately feel the formality and coziness of this spacious mansion. To the right of the grand foyer are the living room and dining room each with an elegant marble fireplace. To the immediate left is the distinguished, private office overlooking the carpark. The family room and wet bar are just beyond the grand foyer. The kitchen is to the right of the family room and overlooking the tennis court and pool. Step down the spiral staircase from the kitchen to find the maid's quarters--or if you prefer the gym that opens onto the tennis court. A bedroom suite is also on the main level. Four more bedrooms can be found up the sweeping staircase. The master suite is the entire south wing with a balcony overlooking the pool. The master bath has a sauna and a multi head shower. Every bedroom throughout the house has a view and is a suite. Off the kitchen and family room is a traditional covered sitting patio and just a few steps more is an outdoor brick pizza oven. The 805 SF guest house can easily be used as a gym, theater, music studio, or man cave. The 250 SF pool house has a kitchen and 2 refrigerators for plenty of cool drinks. The compound is securely fenced and well lit with water fountains and fruit trees throughout. Come see this extraordinary family compound designed and maintained with great care and grace.
