Nested among the verdant embrace of the Arroyo Seco in Pasadena, Potter Daniels Manor stands as a magnificent testament to timeless elegance and historical significance, with a designation as a Pasadena City Landmark. This exquisite estate bears witness to a bygone era of opulance and refinement, and offers views of the Historic Colorado Street Bridge and the Rose Bowl, both which didn’t even exist at the time this home was constructed.
