Description

VICTORIA WOODS-Offered as a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Southern California architectural history, this exceptional mid-century modern residence is attributed to noted architect Philmer J. Ellerbroek, whose work was featured in Architectural Digest and helped define the seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle synonymous with California living. Privately perched on a gentle hill along prestigious Arroyo Drive in the coveted Victoria Woods neighborhood, this residence immediately captivates with a circular drive way with peekaboo views toward the golf course and beyond. A serene gated courtyard sets the tone, guiding you through extra tall double entry doors that upon entering reveal this homes most breathtaking feature.Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, walls of paneled mahogany and A-framed glass offer picturesque views of an entire landscape that unfolds like a living work of art. It is all anchored by a magnificent original olive tree set within a large concrete patio. Beyond, layers of mature trees, lush lawn, and meandering walkways wind gracefully through ivy and greenery, creating a serene, park-like setting that feels both curated and completely organic.This seamless visual connection between indoors and outdoors embodies the essence of mid-century design where architecture and landscape exist harmoniously.The expansive living room flows effortlessly as the heart of the home, filled with natural light and designed for both quiet moments and entertaining. To the left, the kitchen and adjoining breakfast nook with access to a flexible adjoining room—currently used as a bedroom but ideal as a study or formal dining space. This wing also connects to the enclosed garage, originally designed as a covered carport.The opposite wing is dedicated to privacy, featuring the spacious primary suite along with secondary bedrooms and a well-appointed hall bath reflecting classic mid-century design principles of separation.Originally conceived as a contemporary-modern showpiece, the home has been renovated to retains its architectural integrity while offering flexibility for modern living. Extensive original plans and architectural documents are preserved and included.Situated on approximately half an acre and located just moments from the Victoria Club, schools, shopping and easy freeway, truly exceptional home offered in one of Riverside’s most established and desirable neighborhood where timeless design, privacy,and location converge.

    " I'm a REALTOR and have been living in this area for over 15 years. This is a nice, quiet area of Riverside better known as the "Cowboy Streets" due to the names of the streets: Durango, Laredo, Carson Laramie, , etc. Most residents have lived here for over 30+ years. Schools are great. Victoria Elementary, Alcott Elementary, Gage Middle and Poly High School. You always see residents walking their dogs and it's safe an quiet. Not many homes for sale here..."
