552 W 19th St, San Pedro, CA, 90731

One of San Pedro’s oldest and most unique homes is looking for someone new to love! This 1902 classic is one of a kind! Everywhere you look you’ll find something to behold-whether it’s the wood burning stove or original refinished natural wood floors, you won’t find another home like this! The moment you arrive you’ll be greeted with hand-carved porpoises on the front porch, where you’ll spend countless hours relaxing and people watching. The front door is adorned with stained glass and classic hardware and the old doorbell still signals your arrival. High ceilings and tall windows allow sunlight to stream through this amazing home. The semi-circle window in the living room is rumored to have come from the old Terminal Island schoolhouse. Throughout this home are treasures claimed from many places–if only the walls could talk! Much of the exotic wood found in the floors, cabinets and counters found its way here through the Port of LA over a span of many years. The stained-glass windows were hand-made by the previous artist/owner too! The kitchen offers lots of space for prep and storage and is bathed in sunlight and offers a new dishwasher and fridge. The main floor bedroom retains the classic look of the home with an art-deco flair. Upstairs is a loft-style bedroom with lots of storage and windows including a new remote controlled skylight that offers a view of the PV hills! There is a cozy 3/4 bath, and a newly renovated full bath. Outside, a back porch leads to a spacious yard with numerous fruit trees, and new pavers for easy maintenance. There's a 750+ sq. ft. 3-car alley access garage (or 2 w/workshop) with a ½ bath so you don’t have to run inside in the middle of your projects! Above the garage is a large 1 bedroom apartment that has been completely renovated, including a brand new kitchen, new flooring and a separate water heater. Some of the numerous recent upgrades to this amazing property include new ABS drains, tankless water heater, new switches and electrical wiring, modern lighting, exterior fencing, and more! This R-2 lot offers lots of opportunity! Just blocks away is the burgeoning LA waterfront-the waterfront park, Cabrillo Beach Yacht Cub, the Cabrillo Marina as well as the Marine Aquarium and so much more! San Pedro is in the midst of a renaissance with the West Harbor project expected to create a world-class waterfront experience. This is the perfect package–a one-of-a kind home, in a quaint beach town with no place to go but UP!
