City style minus the city
With such amenities as a recording studio and a temperaturecontrolled garage, this gated compound seems suited for the bright lights of Hollywood. But it’s the quiet city of Claremont where the place sits on more than an acre of grounds.
Recently reimagined, the home strikes a balance between rustic casual and contemporary flair. A beamed-ceiling great room, distressed-wood accents and barnstyle sliding doors are among features of note. In the master bathroom, backlighting sets off a vibrant slab of onyx.
