This home has been described as,
Oak Ridge - The Clifford Barnes estate. Elmer Grey, F.A.I.A., 1912. Secluded behind a set of river rock gateposts, Elmer Grey's talent as an exceptional architect during the Arts and Crafts period is well-represented in the two story Barnes estate. Located in Pasadena's edenic San Rafael Hills, Grey's design applies Craftsman sensibility and modernity as the once patrician western edge of Pasadena's Victorian-era landscape transitioned into a new, modern world. Grey's application of low-pitched, gabled roof and dormers, heavy use of wood rafters, wood-shake siding, and pebble dash stucco exteriors provide a perfect counterpoint against the architectural formality of the late-nineteenth century. Generous common rooms with multiple outdoor loggias blend well with the organic environment of the 1.6 acre lot. Mills Act approved in 2015. 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, studio, 3 car garage, finished basement/entertainment room, pool.
