About the Listing CLW-X8146102 - CLW-X73153,CLW-C100328

Perched in the hills of South Pasadena, the Howenstein Residence is a rare architectural offering, remodeled and expanded by revered modernist architect R.M. Schindler in 1943. Quietly woven into the natural topography, the home embodies Schindler's philosophy of organic modernism, where architecture and landscape exist in constant dialogue. Its restoration was undertaken with deep respect for Schindler's vision and craftsmanship, preserving the inventive spirit of the home and its dramatic flying roofline while thoughtfully adapting the property for modern living. Over time, the current owners uncovered Schindler's original plywood built-ins and stainless-steel fireplace and restored his custom lighting designs. Additional improvements prioritized sustainability, energy efficiency and wellness through upgraded systems, enhanced air quality via an all-electric design, and the use of environmentally conscious materials. Schindler's carefully planned windows frame views stretching from the natural beauty of the San Gabriel Mountains to the dynamic city skyline of Downtown LA. The home unfolds with rhythm and restraint, capturing shifting light throughout the day and opening effortlessly to surrounding decks and outdoor spaces, providing both a peaceful, contemplative retreat and a joyful, inspiring place to live and entertain. Set on four parcels totaling nearly 20,000 square feet of largely flat, highly usable ground - rare for a hilltop home - this property offers exceptional opportunities for future enhancements. Soulful, enduringly chic, and remarkably relevant, the Howenstein Residence presents a unique chance to inhabit a meaningful piece of Southern California design history, while deeply rooted in the community of South Pasadena, so beloved for its small-town character, vibrant local culture, and highly regarded schools.
