Home of the Week: A ranch house reinterpreted in Pasadena
A modern interpretation of classic ranch style, this 1950s residence in Pasadena’s sleepy North Arroyo draws the eye with its contrasting hues, black-framed windows and a mix of concrete, metal and natural wood finishes. Two similarly inspired guest suites, a pool house and a greenhouse now accompany the main home on nearly an acre of tree-topped grounds.
