1165 North Howard Street

Located within the coveted Bellehurst Park enclave of Glendale's beloved Rossmoyne neighborhood, this exceptional 1930 Spanish Revival blends timeless architectural character with lush, resort-like living with a near-century of loving stewardship. Bellehurst Park is celebrated for its picturesque streets, mature trees, architectural significance, and serene foothill setting, all while moments from Glendale's beloved shopping, dining, and parks. Framed by mature landscaping on a corner lot, the home immediately captivates with its terracotta rooflines, wrought iron detailing, charming awnings, and enchanting shaded courtyard nestled among vibrant greenery. From the moment you arrive, there is an unmistakable sense that this is not simply another house, but a truly special home. Inside, graceful archways, intricate hardwood inlays, and a dramatic staircase immediately showcase the home's rich architectural character. The living room is anchored by soaring wood beam ceilings, a beautifully rebuilt fireplace, and a striking arched picture window that fills the space with natural light. Double French doors open to the courtyard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow and a relaxed, retreat-like atmosphere. The kitchen serves as the heart of the home, centered around a spacious island and filled with warmth and natural light. A beautiful garden window above the sink frames lush greenery, while the easy connection to the dining room makes the space ideal for both everyday living and intimate entertaining. Nearby, a versatile flex space offers the perfect setting for a home office or creative space, while a main-level bedroom and intricately tiled bathroom provide comfortable guest accommodations. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms offer peaceful retreats surrounded by greenery and soft natural light. The primary suite features peek-a-boo mountain views, a spacious closet, and walls of windows that invite the surrounding landscape inside. As the breeze moves gently through the space, the room evokes the feeling of being tucked within a treehouse canopy. The secondary bedrooms feature charming dressing areas with built-ins rarely found today, while two beautifully maintained bathrooms showcase original tilework, including rare waterlily tile liners and Washington cast iron tubs, reflecting the home's enduring craftsmanship and architectural integrity. A cozy reading nook overlooking the treetops offers a peaceful place to unwind. Surrounded by tropical landscaping and ivy-covered walls, the backyard feels entirely removed from the pace of the city. Thoughtfully cultivated over time, the outdoor space has been transformed into a lush private oasis where filtered sunlight moves through layered greenery and the gentle sound of water creates an atmosphere of remarkable calm. The sparkling pool and spa are seamlessly integrated into the landscape, while the lounging area creates an experience reminiscent of a hidden boutique hotel. Major system updates completed by the previous owner include updated electrical wiring, replacement of the main roof, main sewer line, pool pump, and gutters. The home also features dual-zone heating and air conditioning, copper plumbing, earthquake-resistant foundation bolting, shear-wall bracing, and seismic rebuilding and reinforcement to the chimney. This is a rare opportunity to own a Spanish Revival rich in character, privacy, and timeless California living within one of Glendale's most cherished neighborhoods.
