Property Description

Architectural Midcentury Gem in Riverside’s Coveted Whitegate Neighborhood Tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees and surrounded by lush, garden-like grounds, this 1958 midcentury ranch by acclaimed Southern California architect William Bray blends timeless design with a serene sense of place. Resting on over a half-acre corner lot in the prestigious Whitegate community of Hawarden Hills, the home offers a rare combination of architectural pedigree, privacy, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. A horseshoe driveway winds through beautifully landscaped grounds, leading to a dramatic entry marked by a pitched roofline and exposed wood beams—an early hint of the artistry within. Inside, the home’s signature midcentury character shines through natural materials, vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, and walls of glass framing peaceful views of the backyard and pool. The living and dining areas flow seamlessly together, centered around a cozy fireplace and opening to an expansive wood deck overlooking the gardens. The galley-style kitchen honors the home’s vintage spirit while offering abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a sunny breakfast nook. A separate family room with built-in storage and direct deck access provides the perfect space for relaxing or entertaining. With three bedrooms, two baths, and a flexible office or art studio, the home also features a greenhouse and basement-style storage beneath the rear section—ideal for creative projects or additional utility space. Celebrated on local home and garden tours, this thoughtfully preserved residence has been meticulously maintained and sensitively upgraded to enhance comfort without compromising its architectural soul. A true Southern California retreat, this home embodies easy, refined living—where design, nature, and tranquility come together beautifully in every season.
