Nestled in the hills of Sierra Madre, the J.J. Mulvihill Residence is an architectural retreat at the foothills of the The San Gabriel Mountains with views to the Pacific Ocean. Built in 1949 for J.J. Mulvihill, the owner of an exotic plant nursery, renowned California architect Harwell Hamilton Harris crafted this stunning home to engage the landscape in a bold and modern way that also feels timeless. Wrapped in custom milled Redwood, the house is the essence of mythical California living: Magical views from every window and a covered lanai framing a 100 year old Oak tree. The current owners have lovingly updated, preserved and restored as many details as possible. The upstairs is a showcase space for entertaining or lounging in the window-wrapped living room, with a 13 ft ceiling, exposed beams and 180 degree views to the South. To the North, two fully restored suites featuring custom builtins and lighting. The main level includes the re-imagined cook's kitchen, laundry room, pantry and a jewel box glass dining area with garden views of oaks folding into mountains beyond. Steps away, an expansive outdoor living room lanai with custom brick fireplace allows you to unplug and harmonize with nature year-round. An additional private suite rests on the ground level and offers a view of the lotus pond and the magnificence of the oak's full canopy.
