The Gell-Mann Residence: William E. Blurock Architect. Set gently into the tree-lined edge of the Arroyo Seco, this two-story mid-century modern residence was built in 1956 and designed by California modernist architect William E. Blurock, FAIA, whose career shaped landmark civic and educational buildings across the state and around the world. Believed to be one of only a few private homes he ever designed, this striking mid-century residence is quietly tucked behind mature landscaping within Pasadena's storied, National Register-listed Prospect Historic District.The five-bedroom, five-bathroom home is anchored by an aspirational reverse floor plan that lifts the main gathering spaces to the upper level, where soaring living-room ceilings, a copper-clad fireplace, and a bespoke mid-century light fixture stretching the entire length of the living room wash the interiors in a welcoming, warm light. Custom millwork and walls clad in walnut and maple lend a natural richness to the residence. Walls of glass and a second-story balcony frame sweeping views of the Rose Bowl and surrounding canyons. A dramatic open-plan stairway becomes a sculptural centerpiece for the home, animated by inset colored-glass panels and highlighted by an architectural railing wrapped in wood and cork flooring.Below, the floor plan opens around a serene zen-style garden and an expansive pool, with a private pool house/guest studio completing a resort-like retreat built for modern California living. Flagstone, stucco and a subdued facade let the house belong effortlessly among the district's Craftsman and period-revival landmarks.The home carries a remarkable provenance as the longtime residence of Nobel Prize-winning physicist Murray Gell-Mann, who lived here during his most creative years at Caltech. The scientist who named the "quark" and reorganized our understanding of the building blocks of matter found his home in a house designed, quite literally, to lift its inhabitants toward the light and the view.More than a home, this is a rare convergence of California modernism, landscape, craftsmanship and intellectual history. Square footage was measured by PlantLab LA: House only-6006, Garage-454, Studio-153. Buyers to verify all permitted and possibly unpermitted spaces. The residence is ready to write its next chapter.

Some houses are updated by erasing what came before. Others are cared for in a way that allows their character to endure. Built in 1938 and located within Pasadena's Craftsman Heights Landmark District, this two-bedroom, one-bath traditional bungalow offers 1,072 square feet filled with the details that give a vintage home its warmth, individuality and sense of place. Original hardwood floors carry through the living and dining spaces, joined by graceful period openings and anchored by the home's original fireplace and mantel. Period-appropriate sconces complement the fireplace, while the original dining-room doorbell is one of those wonderful small details that reminds you this house has a story. The kitchen is perhaps the home's most remarkable survivor. Rather than being remodeled into something it was never intended to be, it remains largely original, retaining its cabinetry, tile work and sink. The linoleum tile floor was replaced in a period-appropriate pattern, while a vintage, period-correct stove—complete with its original salt and pepper shakers—provides an extraordinary connection to the era. The stove will remain with the property. Just off the kitchen, a separate laundry room adds practical space while keeping everyday household functions tucked away. In the bathroom, restoration was approached with the same respect for the home's character. Period-appropriate tile was installed while preserving the original bathtub, allowing the room to feel at home within a 1937 bungalow rather than disconnected from it. Set on a 4,362-square-foot lot, the property also offers a gated driveway with additional off-street parking and a detached one-car garage at the rear. What makes this bungalow special isn't simply its age. It's what has survived: original materials, thoughtful details and the unmistakable character that comes from a house that has not been stripped of its past. For someone who believes originality is worth preserving, 590 Prescott Avenue offers something increasingly difficult to recreate—and an opportunity to become the next steward of a very special Pasadena home.
