Property Details

With 12,000 square feet on four levels, including six stately bedrooms, six baths, the Newhall Mansion exemplifies the Queen Anne Style, an elegant and rich definition of the Victorian period. Following the recent renovation, it also provides a unique combination of very spacious living combined with modern sophistication.

The Newhall Mansion has eight gas fireplaces, each unique with variations of carved wood, marble and tiled mantels, facings and hearths, 12-foot ceilings and elaborate mantels, and chandeliers. Walls are covered with imported flocked wallpaper.

The floors stone tiling work on the main level is incredible. On upper floors, the wooden floors and inlay are also notable and provide the consistency of superb quality of materials and craftsmanship to the home.

Various rich woods are used throughout the Mansion — these include crotched mahogany, Carpathian elm burl, birch and fine-grain redwood in intricate trim, wainscoting and paneling typical of the elegant Queen Anne style.

The design of the Mansion, with two ornate turrets rising up from the native Sespe stone foundation, is attributed to the architectural team of Samuel and Joseph Cather Newsom, the most renowned late Victorian architects in California.
