Ard Eevin

Ard Eevin is a mansion combining Colonial Revival, Bungalow, and Craftsman architectural styles on its property in Glendale, California. The building demonstrates how architect Nathaniel Dryden brought together multiple design approaches into a single structure.

The house was built in 1903 for Daniel Campbell as a residence that reflected the architectural trends of its era. It gained recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006 for its design contributions.

The mansion's name comes from Scottish Gaelic, meaning 'beautiful heights', which reflects how early 20th century residents blended cultural heritage with their architectural choices. Visitors can see how different building styles were mixed together in ways that felt natural and appealing to people at that time.

The mansion sits on Mountain Street in a residential neighborhood and can be viewed from outside along with nearby properties. Documentation and architectural details are available through local historical offices and preservation organizations.

The architect mixed design elements in unexpected ways, bringing together regional building styles that were not typically combined in a single house. This experimental approach is visible in the building's exterior details and overall composition.
