L.C. Bauer, Designer & Builder
1255 Wentworth — Pasadena
$4,999,000
The first of two estates commissioned by the Freemans during the economic optimism of the 1920s, their L.C. Bauer-designed
home reflects the eclectic, interpretive designs of Southern California regional vernacular architecture. Incorporating elements
of Italianate, Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean revival themes, Bauer’s well-executed design reflects the growing milieu of
architectural eclecticism which dominated the region until the great depression. Far from the harsh New England winters
Alfred Freeman experienced until his retirement to Pasadena in 1926, the bucolic South Oak Knoll neighborhood near the
Huntington Hotel provided an idyllic setting for Freeman and his wife, Ethel. While the Freemans only resided at their first
home for one year until building their next home on South El Molino, they commissioned a third home in 1931, one block
south of their first commission. 5 Bedrooms, 7 Bathrooms, Pool, Guest House, 2 Car Garage. First offering in 55 years.
