Project details

Built in 1923, the Bradbury House is a fourteen-room, 5,198 SF single-family residence constructed of adobe brick on a concrete foundation with stuccoed walls and recessed casement windows. The residence exhibits character-defining features of Spanish Colonial Revival architecture.

Attached to the house is a two-story garage/guest house wing. There is a Moorish-styled patio nestled between the two wings of the house.

The Bradbury House was designed by John W. Byers, a noted Spanish Colonial Revival architect of the 1920's and is a Los Angeles historical-cultural monument. The building was significantly damaged in the 1994 Northridge earthquake and repairs were started by Nels Roselund, a noted preservation structural engineer.  With Nels' retirement in 2016, Structural Focus picked up where he left off and completed the project in early 2017.
