1815 Idlewood in Glendale California is a 4 bedroom 3 bath home with 2743 SqFt.

This home has been described as, This is simply the most elegant Spanish home that I have ever had the pleasure of presenting to the market. Mrs. Benway, the original owner/builder, was uncompromising in the authentic detail with which she designed and built this two story Revival masterpiece. The subsequent two owners have preserved that original character as curators of this museum quality example of residential architecture. The wishing well in the private front courtyard is only a hint of the detail within. The delicately tiled entry opens to the grand formal living room with a high beamed ceiling, fireplace, mahogany flooring, and a stunning lead glass window with stained glass details. The dining room is large and formal as well. The kitchen and breakfast room are a symphony of preserved tile and trim. There is also a guest suite on this first floor as well as an intimate den with rich wood flooring and a hidden wet bar. The wide and tiled stairway is itself a work of art and will coax an aria from any visiting opera singing guest. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and two baths that are beyond my ability to describe. The master suite has its own view balcony. Features include: updated plumbing and electrical, foundation bolting, pool and spa, and a 2 car det. garage.
