About the Listing 11675 - P18589

Welcome to the W.R. Hayden House -- an architectural treasure that celebrates Polynesian Mid-Century design through its masterful use of natural materials and timeless modernity. Commissioned by supermarket magnate and philanthropist W.R. Hayden, the home was designed by noted architect Robert H. Ainsworth as a bold expression of Mid-Century innovation -- where walls of glass dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, extending sightlines and bathing every room in luminous natural light that dances across stone, wood, and exquisite period details.The showcase living room epitomizes California's indoor-outdoor lifestyle, opening directly to a sprawling lanai, oversized pool, and lush garden retreat. In the dining room, golden hour transforms gatherings into something magical, as broad picture windows frame the serene neighborhood beyond. Throughout the home, flexible living spaces invite connection and reflection, while Ainsworth's signature use of natural, unfinished materials brings a profound sense of balance between the built and natural environments. The primary suite offers tranquil pool views and a spa-inspired ensuite, turning each morning into a private reverie. Three additional ensuite bedrooms ensure comfort and privacy for all. A hidden staircase reveals a second-floor retreat -- an ideal space for a playroom, studio, or home office. Beyond the main residence, a 1,076-square-foot pool house echoes the home's architectural beauty, featuring a kitchenette, changing rooms, and two baths. This versatile companion space invites effortless entertaining and relaxed living. Nestled within San Marino's coveted Poet's Quarter, the W.R. Hayden House embodies inspired design and effortless livability -- a home where beauty and purpose coexist in perfect balance.
