It was built from 1931 to 1941 for Pedro Joseph de Lemos, a painter, printmaker, illustrator and architect.[3] Lemos also served as the director of the Stanford University Museum of Art from 1918 to 1947.[3] The approximately 9,000 square foot house was design and built by Lemos, from 1931 until 1941.
