Description
Set within one of Claremont’s most architecturally distinct neighborhoods. Blaisdell Drive is a hub for mid-century modern residences designed by Theodore Criley and Fred McDowell Architects, reflecting a time when design was intentional and understated. The lines are clean, the ceilings are high, and the windows are placed where they should be, bringing in light without feeling overdone.
Inside, it’s a mix of what’s been kept and what’s been quietly updated. The original kitchen cabinetry remains in place, showcasing a rich wood finish that adds warmth and character to the space. The rest of the interior has been softened with a neutral palette, so nothing competes with the architecture.
The layout is straightforward with four bedrooms, two baths, approximately 1,916 square feet, it feels more open than that number suggests. The main living areas transition naturally to the outdoors, where the space truly expands.
Set on a approximately 10,215 square foot corner lot, the yard has a sense of space that’s getting harder to find. Mature trees, established landscaping, and enough separation from neighboring homes to feel private.
Well-positioned near The Claremont Colleges, the Village
shops and dining, Chaparral Elementary, and the California Botanic Garden.
It doesn’t attempt to reinterpret mid-century design. It simply reflects it, which is exactly where its appeal lies.
