1019 Don Pablo Drive

Set at the end of a cul-de-sac is the 4963 square feet home known as The Armstrong Estate. Lionel M Armstrong, a powerful business executive & investor, commissioned Roland E. Coates, the renowned "architect to the stars", to build this Monterey Colonial style home for his family in 1927. Sitting on almost half an acre of land, this home was built for entertaining with its large formal living room spilling out to a charming leisure room & then out to the spacious backyard. Coate's trademark design of high ceilings & numerous windows is evident throughout the house. W/ 5 beds, 4 full baths & powder room, Armstrong Estate doesn't lack space. The dining room, complete with a butler's pantry makes for hosting friends & family. For smaller, more casual get-togethers, head to the warmth of the library with its adjoining bar. The guest wing hosts 2 beds & 1 bath. Upstairs, which is easily accessed by one of the 2 separate staircases, are 2 more bedrooms sharing a bathroom, & the master retreat. The master retreat includes a spacious bedroom with mountain views, a bathroom and a large closet. Adding to the space of this house is the large basement, a well-thought-out detail of Armstrong and Coate's collaboration. Armstrong Estate harkens back to the "Golden Era" of residential architecture with timeless style & elements brought together by giants of business & art. Now it waits for the right person to bring its luster and create new memories to carry into the future.
