Today's featured photoshoot is a special history treat. It's a home MediaCarrot photographed for our client Jerry Sun with Re/Max, www.jerrysun.com. It's a 3 bedroom, 2.75 bathroom, 2,665 sq. ft. Historic mid-century modern house. It was built by architect Tom Chino and his wife Diane "Dee" Chino who, according to a passing neighbor, were one of the first Japanese-American families in the neighborhood. It was originally a fruit grove for a much larger 845 Wildrose that was eventually separated into smaller lots. The Chino's lived in a bunkhouse on the land while they built their home from November of 1964 to 1968. The bunkhouse is now a guesthouse and was remodeled in the 90's. There has been very little change to the main house over the years and it still retains some of the original teak furniture and the canary yellow kitchen appliances. Tom passed away in 2006 at the age of 92. Dee continued to live in the house with her niece until just recently. The house was given a Historic Landmark Designation by the city of Monrovia in 2015.
