About This Property
Completed in 2002 to a design by renowned architect Renato Corzo,
1240 Bennett Drive is a tranquil modern retreat perched above the
Arroyo. Crisp architectural lines, soaring ceilings and
skylights--some reaching 14 feet--fill the open floor plan with
natural light. Recent enhancements include thermally insulated
sliding window walls, fresh elastomeric paint, rebuilt decks, an
expanded garage and an EV charger, creating a residence that feels
both fresh and timeless.Refined finishes include granite
countertops, high-end Dornbracht fixtures, motorized Mecho shades,
bespoke maple cabinetry and exceptional lighting. The spa-like
primary suite is a private oasis with Arroyo views, a wet bar and
an outdoor shower. A spacious basement workshop and gym provides
flexibility for artisans, fitness enthusiasts and hobbyists.
Updated systems--including dual Lennox HVAC units, whole-house
water purification and a tankless water heater--deliver modern
comfort and efficiency.Designed for entertaining, the
resort-caliber grounds center around a sculptural infinity-edge
pool with a copper wall, scuppers and waterfall. New plaster, tile,
equipment and remote-controlled LED lighting create dramatic
ambience with minimal maintenance. A stainless-steel and Ipe bench,
built-in grill and ceiling-mounted heaters anchor the patio.
Award-winning landscape architect David Hocker designed the lush
gardens, where crushed-granite paths wind through native plantings
and a fenced orchard of fruit trees.The detached,
climate-controlled 1,042-square-foot garage is conceived as a
gallery-like studio, with poured-concrete walls, polished black
floors, an airy loft and an aluminum-and-glass door. Accommodating
as many as five vehicles, it also features a three-quarter bath,
stainless-steel sink and counter, mini-split HVAC system,
sprinklers and security cameras--offering exceptional potential as
an office, studio, gym or future ADU, subject to applicable
approvals. The attached garage includes custom cabinetry, while a
gated driveway with an Elite opener and Knox Box provides secure
access.From the east patio and balconies, panoramic views encompass
the Arroyo, Rose Bowl, downtown Pasadena and the San Gabriel
Mountains. Bold architecture, thoughtful upgrades and
resort-inspired amenities make this property a tour de force of
modern design, combining extraordinary beauty with exceptional
livability.
