This home has been described as,
The John Beach Residence, 1941: sited at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains, and created during Farquhar's mature period, which also encompassed his work on the Pentagon, the residence reflects a refinement of program and detail honed by a lifetime in architectural design. A classic Italian Villa is the theme, but the notes are modernspace and details are simplified. Rather than exuberance, there is discipline; calm prevails. Public rooms are oriented to garden courtyards. The residence incorporates a formal entry, step down beamed living room, paneled library, tiled formal dining room, modern kitchen, maid's suite, laundry, 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths and office. The over 3/4 acre estate site displays a gated motor court, semi-detached three car garage, pool & pool houses, all within a mature landscape of oak, fruit trees, lawn and flower gardens.
