Resource Description:
1625 Pegfair Estates Drive (Photo 16) is a single story, U-plan single family Custom Ranch residence done in the Contemporary Ranch design system with strong Asiatic influences. This house features wood shiplap cladding with a periodic horizontal wood member for the affect of an applied, Asiatic screen. This same cladding is present upon the garage door, which faces the street due south. The entry is off-center and features a pair of salmon pink doors each with a vertical silver stripe. At the side of either door are full-height sidelights with a repeating circular pattern design. The garage wing protrudes out toward the street, and its gable end features a centered vertical stripe of flagstone running up the middle of it with a stripe of the circular patterned privacy glass at either side of it. Three exposed beams extend out beneath this gable. A continuous stained wood lintel runs across the front elevations of the living and garage wing. All roofs are clad in asphalt shingle. Where the garage bay ends this lintel cantilevers to one side and is painted the same color as the cladding. An Eastern style stained wood screen hangs from this cantilevered lintel, and within it is a round window. The eaves of the building are low and hanging from that at the front elevation is one circular 1950s era globe light. This house has two chimneys, each made of the same flagstone seen upon the front facing gable end. The house is recessed on its lot. The front yard is a gently sloped berm from which grow tall, mature pine trees. Immediately in front of the entry a small landscaped area bordered with decorative boulders is present. Decorative stones in the Asiatic tradition are situated in the yard in front of the entry. Constructed in 1965, 1625 Pegfair Estates Drive retains excellent integrity and is a contributor to the Pegfair Estates District.
