Resting amongst some of Pasadena's finest character homes, The Wilcox House stands out as one of the city's most unique and celebrated properties. Designed by Bob Ray Offenhauser in 1961, this neo-Palladian estate is a masterpiece of Period Revival architecture. Offenhauser designed this home utilizing the signature aesthetic for which he achieved world renown--contemporary interpretations of older classical styles. By merging classic Roman inspiration with modern sensibilities, he brought to life a visually stunning luxury home that resonates the timeless elegance of an 18th-century Tuscan villa. The dramatic entrance soars with 14ft French doors, ushering in a palatial atmosphere that includes towering ceilings, marble flooring, Corinthian columns, and vast window walls. Boasting 4 secluded bedroom suites, the layout ensures total privacy and comfort. Any chef will feel at home in the expansive kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and a central island. Sophisticated and welcoming, the main living areas are situated around a central, outdoor courtyard with retractable awnings and a sparkling pool. This dazzling space unites the entire estate and elevates both formal events and casual gatherings with a seamless indoor/outdoor flow. Nearby is a versatile studio, serving as a spacious pool house or home office. Featured in Architectural Digest and Town & Country, this home is widely recognized for its architectural brilliance and historical significance.
