Property Description

This property presents a rare and compelling opportunity to acquire a residence of significant historical and artistic provenance. Built in 1904 by Frederick Melville Dumond, a distinguished artist and architectural student, this home, known as "Chateau des Reves," embodies a unique blend of European artistic influence and Southern California charm. The architectural design features a French roofline, evoking the medieval homes of Normandy. The interior spaces are characterized by whimsical details and artistic expressions, notably the living room's beamed ceilings adorned with "eavesdroppers" and a fireplace featuring hand-crafted religious scenes and a mural of "Old King Cole." Large, north-facing windows offer panoramic views of the San Gabriel Mountains, while a Moroccan door leads to a den or office space.The formal dining room continues the artistic theme with "eavesdroppers" depicting Guinevere and Lancelot, and an original stained glass window in the stairwell, complemented by historical "arrow guards." The kitchen, located at the rear of the house, opens to a lush garden, abundant with fruit and vegetables. The main floor includes a bedroom with a charming, hinged castle door, and concrete flooring that naturally regulates temperature. The upper level houses a bedroom, bathroom and finished attic (potential 3rd bedroom). Renovations include replacing the firebox and liner in the fireplace, installing copper gutters, a tankless water heater, and a mini-split system in the dining room. Original pilaster lights and replicated exterior fascia boards with trefoil details enhance the property's architectural character. The property includes a detached garage, two covered patios, and multiple intimate outdoor entertaining areas.The expansive backyard is a flourishing orchard, featuring a variety of fruit trees, including avocados, tangerines, limes, lemons, grapefruit, and mandarin oranges. The garden is further enriched by a grape vine, raspberry bushes, and a diverse array of flowering plants, such as star jasmine, pink jasmine, wisteria, crepe myrtles, and roses. A commitment to natural gardening practices ensures a thriving ecosystem, attracting butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds. The property is a sanctuary for nature enthusiasts, with numerous nesting birds and a tranquil atmosphere. The presence of an active fountain further enhances the environment, creating a haven for local wildlife.
