market in 2016 asking the price of $4.75 million I have a very good life I'm lucky enough not to be deprived claimed Merill stre however that doesn't mean the famous actress likes to throw her money away in this aspect she stands in solidarity with her beloved Barbara stron whose house we have also reviewed on our Channel we will leave the link in the description if you are interested in peing at the residence of the actress so the Streep and gmer Duo considered how to save some money and become the lucky owners of their dreamhouse the idea was simple but actionable they used a trust to conduct the $3.6 million transaction this way the couple purchased the estate for half a million less than the original asking price not a bad deal right the mid-century modern house looks splended it was designed in 1959 by the famous Architects Wayne Williams and Whitney Smith who are based in South Pasadena it sits on one of Pasadena's most acclaimed streets with such renowned a neighbors as actress comedian screenwriter and producer Kristen we and actor John C Riley the residence occupies nearly 2 acres of land offering breathtaking views across the city and the distant San Gabriel mountains the house is roughly 3,000 square ft comprising three bedrooms and three bathrooms the exterior is stunning a winding tree covered Drive opens up to the remarkable low-slung estate there is a central Courtyard a lush garden with Pathways and a wraparound deck the backyard boasts a great tree framed view of the Colorado Street Bridge the property also features a detached Studio space which was perfect for Mary's husband and a swimming pool the swimming pool deserves special attention remember the 1980 romantic survival film starring Brook Shields and Christopher Atkins do you recall the title you should have heard of this coming of age romantic story two children on a tropical island in the South Pacific Bingo it's the Blue Lagoon now look back at the pool we couldn't call it another way the Blue Lagoon is a home run do you have other suggestions if so please please leave them in the comments the gorgeous swimming pool with rustic rocks is drowned in a natural setting it has a kidney-shaped design overlooking a territory that was once a horse corral the mature trees make the atmosphere intimate and relaxing there are also beautiful trees in the backyard which added some privacy for Merill Streep her husband and their guests Merill can entertain guests any way she wants due to the open floorhouse plan both living and dining spaces have access to the surrounding Outdoors the Pasadena Mansion features some Japanese influence highlighted by multiple glass facades an Airy living room soaring ceilings and an open floor plan The house's specialty is a 360° panoramic view of the San Gabriel mountains and Pasadena visible from every room through floor to ceiling windows by now you might be intrigued what's inside the house are there any Japanese motives is everything arranged according to Fang or any other Eastern tradition here we are in a spacious foyer with marble flooring and a skylight the space looks bright and Airy the walls aesthetically contrast with the wood slatter ceilings Can You Feel the chi circulating freely in the foyer now let's proceed to the living room complemented by a tall stone fireplace this fireplace is a focal point for the house surrounded by cozy creamy sofas and armchairs we bet an award-winning actress likes to spend time here doing her favorite hobby knitting in several interviews Merill admitted that focusing on the contemplative nature of knitting makes her feel calm M she has even worn several handmade pieces in her movies such as the shawl in doubt 2008 she's not the only Hollywood star who is an Ardent lover of knitting who do you think is another Avid Knitter do you have any ideas drum roll it's Ryan goling the living area in the Pasadena estate is high ceilinged with wood panels honey toned hardwood floors and tiled walls a volted ceiling makes the living room feel open and light there is an effect of the Inside Out circulation through the living area to the hardscapes and Gardens welcome to one of three bedrooms which are scattered throughout the House's Wings the same wood ceilings continue into the master bedroom adding warmth to the White Walls the master bedroom is split into two spaces one with a seating area and a beige chair with a B back it would be very convenient for Merill to write her speeches here as she did for Kramer versus Kramer 1979 there she created her own speech for the courtroom custody scene the original speech didn't impress the actress who told the director Robert Benton I don't think it's a woman's speech I think it's a man trying to write a woman's speech truthfulness is Paramount for the Hollywood Legend known for her versatile talents thus her home must provide favorable conditions for work and rest when Streep and Gummer purchased the house there were still vintage fixtures in the kitchen and bathrooms in 2019 Merill completely renovated the home starting from the plumbing and HVAC system to the garage and ending with the Lagoon like pool however she preserved many original features and Architectural details such as the doors windows and tzo Floors the actress had to ensure it was the perfect summer home for her family meet her oldest son Henry wolf a musician the youngest daughter Louisa a model and two middle children M and Grace both actresses just like their Oscar nominated mother of course every house deserves a little furry someone who would spoil the wallpapers and overturn the antique anque vases we mean our bothersome clumsy yet so dear to the heart pets Merill has made her Point regarding the four-legged issue the interesting thing about being a mother is that everyone wants pets but no one but me cleans the kitty litter she has had multiple cats and dogs throughout her life including a few poodles her current fluffy family member is a mini poodle named Michael here you can see Michael in the arms of director Greta Gerwig on the set of Little Women 2019 a spectacular drama film where Streep played Aunt March overall Streep's lovely home produces a sense of meditative calm and Repose it has a flare for Simplicity due to free and open architectural effects the estate is not a random Bungalow but a reflection of meril's taste showing her depth and passion for art the original design featured several paintings on the walls and knowing about Mary's love for art and literature we can foresee she also decorated the house with many sophisticated artworks after Renovations the glass walls vaed wood planked ceilings black beams original windows and doors bring Dimension to this spacious open concept home numerous windows and skylights allow maximum natural light Marilyn Dawn also own two notable homes in the Northeast a 90 acre estate near salesbury Connecticut and a 6,100
