Privately nestled above the Rose Bowl Stadium, this 5,677-square-foot property includes a recently developed main house constructed of steel, glass, and poured concrete. Designed by Rodney Ross, the four-bedroom, six-bath home embraces indoor/outdoor living and juxtaposes midcentury modern aesthetics with a contemporary industrial vibe.  With ample space for entertaining, this remarkable estate is now listed for $5,000,000

The main house channels a midcentury, modern vibe. 

Not only does this compelling compound feature a newly constructed home, but it is also comprised of another striking volume—the property’s original Kemper Nomland 1957 ranch has been renovated to serve as a pool/guest house.  

The courtyard in the center of the compound opens to a lovely lap pool and connects the main house to the pool/guest house.  

A beautifully landscaped courtyard with a pool now serves as the center point between the two structures. “The inspiration was to bounce off the original structure and develop a modern California ranch theme,” says the homeowner, who collaborated with the architects on the concept. 

The interior of the main home is elegant and airy, with a dark palette warmed by the use of natural wood. A dramatic fireplace is the centerpiece of the open-plan great room. 

The chef’s kitchen features custom crafted cabinetry, a commercial size pantry, and an epic island of mallet stamped stone. It also benefits from ample glazing, which helps the space bring in an abundance of natural light.
