Description
Welcome to The John Howe Chase House (1928): a City of Riverside Home of Merit nestled in the prestigious Somerset Historic District.
This stunning Spanish Colonial Revival with strong Monterey influences has gracefully withstood the test of time, hovering over with views of the 1st Fairway of the Victoria Country Club, one of Southern CAs oldest private clubs. Originally built as a wedding gift from Harry B. Chase to his son John Howe Chase, a civil engineer, and his wife Rhea, the home carries nearly a century of Riverside history within its walls. In 1949, it became the residence of Marion C. Miller — widow of Frank A. Miller, legendary owner of the Mission Inn and the guiding force behind early Riverside. Mrs. Miller called this house home until 1972, adding another remarkable chapter to its legacy.
Set on nearly an acre of land, the property offers rare space and possibility. Room to build an ADU, half-court basketball, pool and spa, gazebo, and a deck, all anchored by a lovely patio cover extending from the back of the home. Character details abound: leaded glass windows, Spanish pavers, two fireplaces, graceful balconies wrapping the home (including the broad second-floor balcony typical of the Monterey style), and all bedrooms thoughtfully located upstairs.
Homes like this don’t come to market often. A piece of Riverside history, a front-row seat to the Victoria, and a canvas for the next chapter — all in one.
