552 W 19th Street San Pedro, CA 90731

One of San Pedros oldest and most unique homes is looking for someone new to love! This 1902 classic is one of a kind! Everywhere you look youll find something to behold-whether its the period light fixtures, wood burning stove or natural wood floors, you wont find another home like this! Youve heard that San Pedro is A WHALE OF A TOWN, and that phrase started right here, with the long-time owners of this fabulous home! The moment you arrive youll be greeted with hand-carved porpoises and a big ceramic whale on the front porch, where youll 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 placesif 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 artist/owner too! The kitchen offers lots of space for prep and storage and is bathed in sunlight. The main bedroom retains the classic look of the home with an art-deco flair, including the hand-painted marble finish, and the floral-patterned carpet! Upstairs is a loft-style bedroom with lots of storage and windows including a skylight that offers a view of the PV hills! There's hiding places where valuables were stash
