April 18--This Spanish Colonial Revival estate, with five levels and 2-foot-thick reinforced walls, was built in 1922 to replicate a Spanish castle with a Moorish design. Such original details as the rotunda entry, ornamental leaded glass windows and a hand-painted barrel ceiling in the living room accentuate the Old World style of the La Ca Flintridge compound.
