//Walter H Seavey House by David A Ogilvie AIA, 1927//This fully renovated English Revival home was originally built for the family of investment banker Walter H Seavey and their three live-in employees in 1927. Designed by David A Ogilvie, who spent 5 years as an apprentice for Reginald Johnson before establishing his own office, and built by legendary Master Builder Peter Hall, the property was featured in the Jan 1928th edition of Architectural Digest, after its completion. Located in the prestigious Estates area in the hills of San Marino, the property has been extensively renovated and expanded. In addition to new systems, bedrooms and bathrooms, a new Great Room (kitchen/family) with: 20' ceilings, antique French oak flooring, Subzero and Wolf appliances and large kitchen island was added. Complementing these new features, the original craftsmanship and materials were maintained/restored, including: leaded glass windows and pull-down screens, doors and wrought iron grille front door, hardwood flooring, butler's pantry w/nickel sink, and 692sf lower-level prohibition bar and recreation room. As with other master architects, Ogilvie sited the home ingeniously to allow for different private and public exterior spaces. The public facing gated front brick courtyard is highlighted by raised rectangular Koi Pond and mature shade trees, while the more intimate, private side yard has outdoor kitchen with bar and table seating surrounded by raised, irrigated garden beds, ideal for regular outdoor dining and entertaining. Connecting both areas is the large wooded rear yard featuring waterfall and 250' winding stream with foot bridges and pathways leading to lower-level pond and waterfall. Truly a rare landscaping detail.//FEATURES// 4BR upper-level, 1BR suite entry-level, 1BR suite w/AC above garage, main kitchen, prep kitchen, butler's pantry, potting room, CAT 5 wiring, EV charging, workshop, gardener's bath, circular driveway, underground downspouts, 250' water feature.
