Resource Description:
1585 Pegfair Estates Drive (Photo 12) is a single story, rectangular Custom Ranch residence with rusticated, “Western” design features associated to the California Ranch design system.1 The residence is clad in wood board and batten with wood clapboard at either end bay, one of which includes a two bay garage. A cross gabled roof is present atop this house. An additional front facing attic vent gable is present upon it. The roof is underscored with rounded edged exposed rafter tails. Large picture windows are present, including two sets of three, one of which is the center of a bumped out board and batten clad window bay. The garage bay is located at the far west end of the building and atop it is a side gabled dovecote. This house is recessed from the street at the brow of an elevated berm covered with juniper, agapanthus, and lavender. A chimney is present and is made of running course brick. The steps to the front entry, which consists of an original set of single panel wood doors, are also made of brick. The garage bay is located at western portion of the residence, and it features a recent, metal door of unsympathetic design. Constructed in 1965, 1585 Pegfair Estates Drive retains very good integrity and is a contributor to the Pegfair Estates District.
