Charlotte McKenzie with The Ransom-McKenzie Team, a team of Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialists affiliated with the Riverside office of Coldwell Banker Realty, has listed a historic Hays-Pattee property in Riverside for $1,400,000. Located at 3611 Mount Rubidoux Dr. in Riverside, Calif., the approximately 4,775-square-foot residence includes six bedrooms and five bathrooms.
“In 1903 noted architect Frank Burnham of the Riverside County Courthouse was commissioned by Tom Hays to build the first home on the slopes of Little Mt. Rubidoux,” said McKenzie. “With views over the Santa Ana River and the City of Riverside, this stately craftsman’s open floor plan and beam ceilings create a living space with a flow designed with entertaining in mind.”
Showcasing an arched and pillared front veranda built of locally sourced white marble granite and historic roof tiles imported from Italy, the home encompasses a welcoming living room with stone and clinker brick fireplace, music room with original wall sconces and ceiling light fixtures, family room and formal dining room with custom built-in china cabinet. Redesigned as part of a Riverside Art Alliance "Designer" Showcase, the kitchen features updated cabinetry, custom tile and a built-in refrigerator. Downstairs, a large circular bedroom was likely the original primary bedroom but is currently being used as an office. On the second floor, running the entire width of the home from front to back, the spacious primary bedroom offers leaded glass windows with views and fresh breezes, separate ductless mini-split HVAC unit and large walk-in closet. In addition to an oversize three-car garage with a two-story apartment on the backside, the grounds conform to the mountainside with boulders, fountains, grassy knolls and trees melding together to create a private retreat. On the property’s west side, there is a second driveway and spacious parking area perfect for RV storage.
