Yung See San Fong House, Historic residence in Los Gatos, California, United States.

The Yung See San Fong House combines oriental pagoda roofs and decorative elements with western architectural features, creating a distinctive residential structure from 1917.

Ruth Comfort Mitchell Young and her husband Sanborn Young constructed this house after the success of her theatrical production The Sweetmeat Game on Broadway.

The residence incorporates Chinese design elements, including hand-carved wooden panels with Chinese characters and a winding access road following traditional principles.

The property functioned as a self-sufficient farm where the owners cultivated vegetables and raised poultry to maintain their household needs.

President Herbert Hoover and film actresses Joan and Constance Bennett visited this house during the period when Sanborn Young served as California State Senator.
