"Visitors of last spring's Pasadena Showcase House of Design will recognize the Bauer Estate and Gardens. This 1928 Monterey Colonial-style mansion and carriage house on 5 acres belonged to the late TV writer Stephen J. Cannell. Now, it's on the market for $22 million. If the property meets the asking price, it could surpass the City of Roses' most expensive home ever sold."
"In 1990, the couple expanded the residence to its current size. It now spans 15,553 square feet and has five bedrooms,13 bathrooms and 10 wood-burning fireplaces. The property has since been renovated thanks to its closeup as the 60th Showcase House. Designers descended on the property to reimagine its interiors and grounds, while preserving the estate's early 20th-century grandeur as envisioned by architect Reginald D. Johnson."
"Johnson and Peter Hall, who worked on the Gamble House, designed and built the property for Harry and Alice Bauer. Harry Bauer was the CEO of Southern California Edison, and his wife served on the board of the Los Angeles County Arboretum. The Bauers turned the acres that surround their home over to Katherine Bashford, a pioneering female landscape architect, to cultivate."
