Completed in 2002 by renowned architect Renato Corzo, and featuring an ADU of over 1000 feet of climatized bonus space, this crisp, architectural contemporary is a tranquil haven perched above the Arroyo. Recent upgrades include thermally insulated sliding window walls, an expanded garage with sleek aluminum and glass door, fresh elastomeric paint, rebuilt decks and an EV charger. The result is a striking residence that feels both fresh and timeless.Vaulted ceilings and skylights, some as high as 14-feet, bathe the sun drenched open plan in natural light. Finishes include gleaming non-drip granite counters, high end Dornbracht fixtures, motorized Mecho shades, best-of-class lighting and bespoke maple cabinetry. The spa like primary suite is a true oasis, featuring Arroyo views, a wet bar and private outdoor shower. A spacious basement workshop/gym satisfies artisans and hobbyists, while updated mechanicals include twin Lennox HVAC systems, whole house water purification and a tankless water heater, all delivering modern comfort and efficiency.Built for entertaining, the resort caliber outdoor spaces flow to a sculptural infinity edge pool with copper wall, scuppers and waterfall. New plaster, tile, equipment and remote controlled LED lights keep maintenance minimal while adding dramatic ambience. A stainless/Ipe bench, built in grill and ceiling mounted heaters anchor the patio, while lush gardens by award winning landscape architect David Hocker weave crushed granite paths among native plantings, a fenced orchard of fruit trees, and discreet irrigation.The detached 1,042 sq.ft. garage is designed like a gallery studio, with poured concrete walls, polished black floors and an airy loft. It includes a 3/4 bath, stainless sink and counter, mini split HVAC system, sprinklers and security cameras, ideal for an ADU, office, gym or a collection of up to five vehicles. The attached garage features thoughtful cabinetry, and a gated drive with an elite opener and Knox Box for secure access. From the east patio, and balconies, savor panoramic views of the Arroyo, Rose Bowl, downtown Pasadena and the San Gabriel Mountains. With bold architecture, thoughtful upgrades and resort like amenities, 1240 Bennett Drive is a tour de force of modern design that combines practicality with extraordinary style. Live like you're on vacation every day.
