o6 Arc A di A Home Summer 2008 I n all of Arcadia, there are only a few properties that reach for the summit of Camelback Mountain. This exquisite estate is perched high above the citrus and irrigated lots of the originally platted Arcadia. Re-built in 2003, the spacious 10,000 square foot hillside playground sits on nearly 55,000 square feet of sloped mountain terrain. Using Camelback’s iconic natural beauty, this contemporary classic boasts a different mountain or city view at virtually every angle. After traveling down the curvy driveway, the front entryway greets guests with a water feature that spills gently down a massive stone face. The oversized front door gives way to the main living area where modern and contemporary elements are blended to perfection. Huge oversized glass walls that tuck away at the touch of a button serve as the only barrier to the outside, which showcases stunning red sandstone cliffs and exemplary views of downtown. In 2007, the home was completely remodeled by Sloan Marshall Interiors. This five bedroom, six bathroom estate now has just enough furniture and accessory pieces to give every setting an understated elegance. Colors were hand-selected to contrast gently with the red rock and set the mood for each room. Every path leads back to the marbella stone patio where one could enjoy a culinary affair with the complete outdoor kitchen/barbeque. This property indeed has everything that one might hope for atop the city’s most majestic mountain. A section of the house was built right into Camelback, one of the walls in this room is actually the side of the mountain, which was crafted into a climbing wall. There is a four-car garage, park-like water features, guest house, gym, sixteen-person home theater with cushy stadium seating, and a triangular negative-edged pool with a built-in Jacuzzi. Clouds merrily float by in agreement above the newly installed putting and chipping green. There is little doubt that the owners enjoy endless vistas in this entertainer’s paradise.
