Theodore Criley-Fred McDowell designed a mid-century gem for the Culbertson family on Live Oak Canyon Rd in 1962. Framed by large oaks and olive trees the house sits along the La Verne/Claremont border. This large, one-acre parcel offers spectacular views, wonderful privacy and space to shape a vision. The three-bedroom 2.5 bath home features a spacious kitchen, built-in credenzas, fireplace with raised hearth, step down living room, a dedicated office and architect designed built-in cabinets. The thoughtful design reflects the mid-century ideas of living comfortably and in relation to nature. In addition to the official 2298 sq. ft, the home comes with lots of flexible space a screened in Lanai that adjoins the kitchen offers about 240 square feet. The tack room and horse stable, approximately 680 sq.ft, has been used as an open air entertainment pavilion for dinners and art exhibitions. Situated next to the garden, and overlooking the canyon live oaks, this space could easily convert to workshop, painting studio or future A.D.U. (Accessory Dwelling Unit). The beauty of this home, its buildings and its space is the way that it accommodates a new owners vision. The detached 2 car garage has two full walls of built in storage. Current owners are avid gardeners and besides all of the raise beds for vegetables, they have planted a variety of citrus, stone fruit and native succulents - all on drip irrigation. Adjoining the garden is a work area for starts, and tools. Live Oaks, cool mountain air, sprawling gardens, and space for dinner parties in the entertainment pavilion are just a few of the pleasures this property offers. This address affords residents a choice of Claremont or La Verne schools as well as the proximity to the Webb Schools, Claremont Colleges, University of La Verne and Cal Poly Pomona. Close to the Claremont Village and downtown La Verne, residents enjoy a convenient proximity to great dining and shopping. Hike, bike and equestrian trails are nearby. Purchased from the original family, the current owners have served as stewards of the home and preserved its mid-century originality. Architectural plans by noted architects Criley and McDowell included. A sanctuary, a private retreat, a haven where you can live the life you have imagined, and live the life you deserve!
