Queen Anne Cottage and Coach Barn
Queen Anne Cottage and Coach Barn, Victorian residence in Arcadia, United States
Queen Anne Cottage and Coach Barn is a Victorian residence featuring intricate architectural details including stained glass windows, black walnut doors, and marble fireplace mantels. The complex comprises two structures that showcase the craftsmanship typical of its era.
Elias Jackson Baldwin built the Coach Barn in 1879 and the cottage in 1885 as a guest house for the Santa Anita Ranch. The structures were constructed during a period of significant economic growth in Southern California.
The residence sits within the Los Angeles County Arboretum and reflects late 19th-century craftsmanship through its ornate Victorian details. Visitors experience firsthand the design choices that defined an era of American luxury.
The site is accessible by appointment or as part of an arboretum tour, sometimes requiring a guided visit. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and prepare for uneven terrain.
The cottage gained fame through the television series Fantasy Island, where the character Tattoo rings a bell in the house's tower during the opening sequence. These television appearances helped establish the property as a widely recognized landmark.
