The Lee Bradley residence is a Greek Revival-style mansion constructed in 1907 for attorney Lee Bradley at 640 Idlewild Circle, a Jemison Company subdivision between George Ward Park and Glen Iris Park.

The red brick house was designed by Thomas Walter III with Sidney Ullman. As a nod to Mrs Bradley's Louisiana heritage, the house features a wraparound, two-story gallery supported on 14 Corinthian columns, with a projecting four-column portico.

The house was later owned by Ollie and Carolyn Smith.
