This Venice Beach compound started with a $10 lot purchase in 1904…
and today it’s become a four-lot property just steps from the sand.
Check out my Friday Find.
Welcome to 27th Avenue in Venice Beach, where old Venice and new Venice sit side by side on one of the most desirable walk streets in Los Angeles.
These two neighboring Craftsman homes can be purchased separately or together, creating an incredible beach compound opportunity.
The first home is the historic anchor of the street.
The original lot was purchased in 1904 by Lucinda Dike for just ten dollars before later becoming home to the family of Edward Gerety, who served as Mayor of Venice.
The reimagined Craftsman sits on a rare double lot and features:
• 5 bedrooms
• 5 bathrooms
• guest house
• pool
• beautiful outdoor entertaining spaces
A pool and guest house this close to the beach?
Not something you see every day in Venice.
Next door is a newly built Craftsman-inspired residence, also set on a double lot.
The home offers:
• 6 bedrooms
• 7 bathrooms
• approximately 6,000 square feet
with expansive indoor-outdoor living throughout.
The primary suite opens to a beautiful deck with ocean views, perfect after a day at the beach.
There is also a guest house and pool — another rarity this close to the sand.
What makes these homes especially unique is the location.
Venice walk streets were originally designed over 100 years ago as pedestrian-only pathways with no front car traffic and direct beach access, making them some of the most coveted pockets in Venice Beach.
Together, these homes create an extraordinary four-parcel compound steps from the ocean.
A pretty incredible piece of Venice Beach history.
The homes are offered separately or together for $18,800,000.
And as always… check out my Friday Finds.
