Property Description
The Peterson House. Glendale historic resource #50 and available for the first time in 50 years. Tucked along one of Glendale's most desirable tree-lined streets north of Mountain, this romantic 1920s Spanish home carries a rare distinction: official Mills Act designation, offering both significant property tax savings and the pride of owning a protected piece of local history. From the moment you arrive, the home's character reveals itself in layers. A timeless facade draped in bougainvillea, framed by a graceful mature olive tree and lush landscaping, leads to an arched front door that opens into an entry rich with original magnesite floors and wrought-iron detailing. The house has a grounded grace, with rooms that flow naturally from one to the next. Inside, rooms feel both generous and inviting, designed for connection and quiet moments alike. The two-story floorplan unfolds with an easy sense of proportion and warmth. To the right, a generous living room with beamed ceilings, a fireplace, and hardwood floors speaks to the home's early Spanish revival craftsmanship. Sunlight filters through arched openings into a cozy library lined with built-ins, perfect for reading or quiet reflection. To the left, the formal dining room sets an elegant tone with textured plaster walls, coved ceilings, and French windows framed by wrought-iron details. The kitchen, centered around a La Cornue range and copper hood, feels like a step back in time, filled with old-world charm and the kind of patina that only decades of care can create. A cheerful breakfast room connects the kitchen and dining area, offering a casual spot for morning coffee surrounded by vintage texture and light. Upstairs, three bedrooms and two baths continue the home's architectural narrative. The primary suite includes a private office framed by windows overlooking the neighborhood, an inspiring space for work, writing, or creative projects. French doors open to Juliet balconies that bring in soft light and a connection to the surrounding trees. Throughout the upper floor, period details such as built-ins, handcrafted railings, and plaster finishes preserve the home's integrity while offering space for thoughtful updates that respect its history. Outdoors, the backyard feels like a private retreat. A spacious deck and pergola overlook a tiled pool bordered by greenery, creating a peaceful setting for gatherings or quiet afternoons in the sun. The garden and pool create their own quiet rhythm, tying the home's indoor spaces to the landscape. Hidden just beyond is a converted garage that now serves as a guest studio, complete with a modern kitchenette and bright interior. Ideal for creative use, workspace, or future potential, it adds another layer of flexibility to this distinctive property. This is a home that carries its history with quiet joy, a place where light and texture tell the story of its past while inviting its next chapter to unfold. One of the few true Mills Act opportunities in Glendale, it stands as a lasting example of Spanish architecture at its most soulful and enduring.
