The History of 615 Idlewyld Drive

Built in 1939, 615 Idlewyld stands as an enduring symbol of Old Florida elegance, fused with Art Deco sophistication. It has been carefully enhanced and preserved by its present owner to be one of Ft. Lauderdale’s greatest residential achievements.

"Elegance is the only beauty that never fades."
