The Property

A house that reveals itself slowly.

Set back behind a long private drive on just over an acre, the residence is organized around light, separation and the outdoors — with living spaces that open directly to the pool, lawn and pergola beyond.

The Approach

A long private drive leads to a home enclosed by a privacy wall and mature landscaping, creating a sense of separation from the street before the residence even comes into view.

Formal living room with vaulted ceiling and windows overlooking the pool

Architectural Character

Beamed ceilings, deep-set windows and a low horizontal profile give the home a distinctive architectural presence.

Rectangular pool at sunset with lounge chairs, pergola and string lights

Privacy

Set on just over an acre and screened by mature landscaping, the home feels intentionally removed from the street.

Primary bedroom with beamed vaulted ceiling and tiled gas fireplace

Split-Bedroom Layout

The primary suite sits apart from the secondary bedrooms, creating separation and privacy within the home.


Primary Suite

A vaulted, beamed ceiling and a tiled gas fireplace anchor the primary bedroom, which opens directly to the main living areas and to the backyard via a sliding door.

Spa-Inspired Bath

An imported stone soaking tub sits beneath a garden window. The walk-in closet measures 6'10" × 15'1". A multi-jet shower and dual vanities complete the space.

Kitchen

Custom wood cabinetry, a stone-topped island with cooktop and seating, and sliding doors that open directly to the covered patio and lawn. High-end appliances include a Bosch dishwasher, Ca'Lefort wine fridge, and Zline refrigerator.

Entertaining Spaces

Two distinct living rooms — one formal with a vaulted ceiling and pool views, one open to the kitchen — allow the house to hold a crowd or a quiet evening.

RV Parking

The property offers space that can accommodate RV or trailer parking, with added flexibility for recreational vehicles and weekend toys.

Indoor / Outdoor Audio

A built-in speaker system extends through the interior and outdoor living areas, making it easy to carry music from inside to the pool, patio and entertaining spaces.

Indoor / Outdoor Connection

Sliding glass doors along the rear of the home dissolve the line between the living spaces and the pool, pergola and lawn beyond.

Outdoor Living

Designed for California Living

The back of the property is where the house spends most of its year. A long rectangular pool holds the last of the evening light. A timber pergola with string lights covers the dining table. Beyond it, open lawn runs to a mature hedge line that closes the property off from everything else. Cooling misters extend comfort through the warmest afternoons.

Sliding doors from the kitchen and both living rooms mean the transition outside is a step, not an event — the difference between a backyard and a second set of rooms.

The Story

A Home With a Story

1818 Old Bridge Road is part of a small collection of homes created with a clear intention: privacy, thoughtful design, and a higher standard of residential living. That original vision can still be felt today in the home's private approach, distinctive architecture, and the way the spaces unfold throughout the property.

The Architect

Brown designed the home with privacy as a guiding principle, shaping the layout and orientation to create separation, comfort, and a sense of retreat. His architectural approach helped give the home the distinctive character it still carries today.

The Builder

Guthrie helped develop the first homes along Old Bridge Road with the goal of creating a new standard of excellence for the area. His approach combined thoughtful design, quality construction, and an early focus on energy efficiency — forward-thinking considerations for the time. “Nothing happens without first a dream.” — a philosophy that reflects Guthrie’s approach to building and development.

Privacy By Design

How siting, setbacks and landscape were used to build privacy into the plan rather than add it later.

Energy Considerations

Orientation, shading and construction decisions made with efficiency in mind, including a solar water heater.
