CASA ADOBE DE SAN RAFAEL HISTORY
Casa Adobe de San Rafael is registered as California Landmark #235.
The casa is believed to have been built in 1865 by Tomas Sanchez, and has a New England style of architecture.
In 1875, the property was sold, left abandoned, and fell into a ruinous state.
In 1930 the Casa was purchased by the California Medicinal Wine Company who planned to tear down the structure and to remove the large eucalyptus trees on the property. Local neighbors and community members stopped the demolition and began a campaign to preserve the house as a historic landmark.
The City of Glendale purchased the adobe in 1930, and by 1932 La Casa de Adobe de San Rafael was completely refurbished.
Today, the adobe includes a Monterey-style corridor (covered porch), beautiful sunken garden, brick patio, gray shake roof, and long narrow front windows adorned with green shutters. Interior furnishings are from the 19th century.
