2818 Pearl Street, Santa Monica, California 90405
For over 80 years only two families have called 2818 Pearl Street "home". This 2005 Custom built Charleston South Carolina 3BR, 3BA is truly a special home! The ingenious design orients the house "sideways" to ignore the neighboring building to the west, thus creating a spacious side yard on the east. A distinctive feature of the southern architecture is for the home to be one-room wide to allow cross ventilation. So even though the home is equipped with air conditioning, it's barely needed! The front & rear facades are clad in real Texas limestone, the same material used at the Alamo. The first floor was remodeled two years ago. Lighting and plumbing fixtures are new as is the fresh paint in and out. The 8,000 SF lot is much larger than most properties on Pearl Street because decades ago the previous owner purchased land from a neighbor on 29th Street. Thus, the rear yard has plenty of room for play, gardening or an ADU. The front garden is loved by neighbors and famous for its Jackson and Perkins roses. The landscaping features mature bougainvillea, jasmine, hydrangeas, and camellias.The trees provide plenty of naval oranges, Meyer lemons, figs, avocados, apples, and even bananas! Two car garage!
