Property Description

Welcome to Santa Monica's oldest surviving timbered structure - the iconic 2nd Street Church, now reimagined as a private residence. Built in 1875 by the hands of its devoted congregation, this Carpenter Gothic architectural landmark was Santa Monica's first church. By 1923, its sacred services had concluded, and it found new purpose as a loving sanctuary for the widows of Civil War heroes - a chapter still honored by the original 'Patriotic Hall' inscription above the entrance. Step inside, and history unfolds beneath your feet with original douglas fir floors, soaring cathedral ceilings, and leaded and stained-glass windows that cast shifting patterns of light throughout the day. The home seamlessly blends its storied past with modern luxury: two bedrooms plus a bonus room that can serve as a third, 2.25 contemporary baths with spacious soaking tubs, and a chef's kitchen outfitted with Viking and SubZero appliances. A loft-style family and dining room invites connection, lined with 12-foot bookcases that make it a dream for bibliophiles, while a movie projector and 15-foot viewing screen transform the space into a private theater for nights of cinematic indulgence. Two cozy nooks offer quiet spaces to read or relax. A private den overlooks the backyard, and a sprawling office with built-in desks provides an inspiring workspace. Beyond its historic walls, a secluded backyard offers a serene retreat, complete with a BBQ grill and an above-ground spa - perfect for moonlit nights. And with Main Street, Rose Avenue, Abbot Kinney, and the beach just moments away, this one-of-a-kind home is perfectly positioned at the crossroads of past and present. This isn't just a place to live - it's a piece of history, beautifully reimagined for modern life. Available 04/01/25.
