1530 Pegfair Estates Drive (Photo 30) is a single story, side-facing U-plan single family Custom Ranch residence done in the Contemporary Ranch style of design, with Asiatic features. This house features a hipped roof with extended eaves, and the roof is clad in staggered course asphalt shingle. The cladding is of a flush, thin scale vertical wood cladding. A set of patio doors is present at the front elevation. The centered entry is recessed and contains a non-original Craftsman style wood door in addition to Craftsman style sidelights—also non-original. The front elevation of this residence faces north. At the western portion of the property is a two-bay garage with a recent metal multi-panel garage door that is a later replacement. The windows of the front elevation, the recessed entry, and the garage are all topped with a horizontal, lintel-like band of stucco trimmed with painted wood 2x4s. Within the roof between the garage door and the front entry is a large, steep-pitched, front-faced gable that serves as an attic vent. Within it are thin, closely spaced wood members of a design that is Asiatic in its influence. A square plan chimney with vertical board cladding is adjacent to this gable. A second smooth stucco rectangular chimney, which appears to be a later alteration, is present atop the roof due east of the front entry. This chimney runs flush with the front façade, which is also of smooth stucco it the section of it directly below the chimney. The front of the property features wide concrete steps and a low concrete wall, within which is a slightly elevated grass covered yard. Smooth concrete planters appear to be a later alteration. As listed above, this resource presents a variety of alterations. However, this resource still reads as one effective, cohesive Contemporary Ranch design. The door and entry changes are recessed behind a deep entryway, and are not glaringly visible. The sidelight bays do not appear to have been altered. The chimney appears to be restuccoed, but this change appears relatively integrated into the resource. The garage door and the chaging of planters, though noticeable, are not severe alterations. Constructed in 1964, 1540 Pegfair Estates Drive retains good integrity and is a contributor to the Pegfair Estates District.
