This home has been described as,
The Ware House, built in 1913 by Greene & Greene, is a deftly executed English Revival set on nearly one-half acre in Southwest Pasadena. A spectacular staircase defines the home, connecting three levels with 6 bedrooms, 6.5 baths, 6 fireplaces and den. The formal English dining room complements the classic California living room, while sensible service rooms - butler and baking pantries, back porch, two maid's rooms with baths, den and motor entrance - complete the first floor. On the second level, there are 4 bedrooms, including a gracious master suite, 4 baths and 3 Batchelder fireplaces. Above, the stairs continue to the third floor, with 4 more rooms and a bath. Original finishes and most original fixtures are found throughout each floor in this remarkably intact example of pre-WWI revival architecture. Updates include subtle lighting enhancements, copper plumbing and rebuilt chimneys. Mills Act status for reduced property taxes; listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
