    CONTENTSBy maureen megoWan / re/max Palos Verdes execs

    After the 1822 decree by the Governor of California that awarded ownership of

    Rancho San Pedro to the Dominque famil, Jose Dolores Sepulveda appealed the

    decision and requested a personal meeting with Governor Luis Arguello in Montere

    to plead his case. In 1824, while Sepulveda was returning from his trip to Monterey, he

    was killed in a violent Indian uprising at Mission La Purisima Concepcion, near todas

    Lompoc.

    His oung sons, Juan Capistrano Sepulveda and Jose Loreto Sepulveda, continued

    his quest for Rancho San Pedro. On May 16, 1826, after the death of his father in 1825,

    Manuel Domingue filed a petition with Governor Jose Maria Echeandia to have theSepulveda rothers and their cattle removed from the Palos Verdes portion of the

    rancho. On May 26, 1826, the heirs of Cristobal Dominguez were confirmed by the

    governor as owners of Rancho San Pedro, thus eing officiall recognied the new

    Mexican regime. Governor Echeandia, in 1827, known for his administrative ineptness,

    also provisionall approved of the Sepulvedas claim to the Palos Verdes portion of

    Rancho San Pedro.

    In 1834, a judicial decree was made by Governor Jose Figueroa which was

    intended to settle the dispute etween the Dominque and Sepulveda families, and

    Juan Capistrano Sepulveda and Jose Loreto Sepulveda were awarded the 31,629 acre

    Rancho Los Palos Verdes. The partition decree left the Dominguez family with 43,119

    acres reducing Rancho San Pedro nearl half the area of the original grant.

    mapofraoSadowoaddraolosaosVds.

    The Sepulvedas were given et another order to leave the Palos Verdes section of

    Rancho San Pedro in June 1839. Again, the Sepulvedas defended their title and on April

    22, 1841, they received a Decree of Possession and an additional strip of land north of

    Palos Verdes Hills from Governor Alverado. In June 1841, an agreement was signed the Dominque famil transferring all right to the Rancho Los Palos Verdes to the

    Sepulvedas. Then on June 3, 1846, Governor Pio Pico officially confirmed the title of

    Rancho Los Palos Verdes to the two oldest Sepulveda rothers.

    Juan Capistrano Sepulveda uilt his adoe home near the intersection of Gaffe

    and Anaheim Streets in San Pedro . Jose Loreto Sepulveda uilt his home further south

    on the west side of North Gaffe Street etween Channel Street and Anaheim Street

    in San Pedro. Jose Loreto Sepulveda was also 2nd Alcalde of Los Angeles, which was

    basically Vice - Mayor of Los Angeles for 4 years during the period 1837 - 1848. Juan

    Capistrano Sepulveda was also 2nd Alcalde of Los Angeles in 1845.

    The Vanderlip Cottage99 Vanderlip Dr. Rancho Palos Verdes

    Once in a lifetime opportunity to own both a beautiful home as

    well as a piece of history. Frank Vanderlip, the original developer

    of Palos Verdes, constructed this earliest existing home on the Pen-insula in 1916 in the Portuguese Bend area as his summer home,

    which he called The Cottage. The Cottage is ideally situated at

    the top of the Portuguese Bend community, and adjacent to the

    famous Vanderlip Mansion. The home has incredible ocean and

    Catalina views, and the site was hand-picked by Mr. Vanderlip as

    the ideal location on the Peninsula for views and the consistency of

    its delightful climate.

    The Cottage has 4 bedrooms , 4 bathrooms, and is approx. 3,866 sq.

    ft. There is also an adjacent 1 bedroom 1 bath approx. 478 sq. ft.

    guest house. Both the dining room and living room exude a Victo-

    rian style of the 1920s. The private entrance drive is up a beauti-ful tree lined promenade ending at the entrance to the Vanderlip

    Mansion and The Cottage. The sense of history and exclusivity of

    the home , combined with its beautiful architecture, pool area, and

    views, makes The Cottage one of the most unique homes on the

    Palos Verdes Peninsula.

    NAMING YOUR PRICE

    Pricing the Sand Section - The SandSection, located just south of Los Angeles,on one of the best beaches in the United

    States, is one of the most unique nichereal estate markets in the country. Fromthe ocean-front Strand properties, to thepostage stamp sized multimillion dollarlots; from bungalows, to mini estates. A fulllot is usually 2700 square feet but there areplenty of half lots; at 1350sf as well. This isnot your Daddys back 40, considering thatthe lots are only 30 feet wide.

    Every style of Architecture has been built,

    designed, re-built, or re-invented. Homes areas close as 72 inches from each other andbuyers will pay millions of dollars to live inthem. Privacy is not likely on your prioritylist when you live here, but lifestyle--fresh air,ocean vistas, surng, and walking to Sundaybreakfastmost likely is.

    The Sand Section also appears to beone of the fastest growing second homemarkets with owners found right here in

    Manhattan Beach, to the Westside of LA,Arizona and beyond.

    Although prices have seen some declinefrom the peak of the market, they are a farcry from the devastation in prices that have

    hit most of the Countrys popular livingplaces; like other parts of California, Arizona,Nevada and Florida. It would have beendifcult to protect any decrease in real estateequity in recent years, but the Sand Sectionsure has prevailed in equity protection evenin the downturn.

    The evaluation of pricing is truly only capableby the local experts. You can move 50 feetto your left or right, and see a price increase

    (or decrease) of over $1,000,000 for whatappears to be an identical property.

    What makes it so difficult to determinean accurate value? That old Real Estateadage . . . Location Location Location!Does the home have a view? Can that viewbe obstructed? Who was the architect?Who was the builder? Is it located Eastor West of Highland? Can you walk toDowntown easily? Can you hear traffic

    noise? Who is your neighbor? Will theylikely build soon? Does the property faceNorth or South? The list of questions can

    seem endless*, but a professional who iswell versed in the many nuances of theSand Section can help maximize your

    profit when selling, or determine thatdiamond-in-the-rough, if buying.

    No matter what your pleasure is, as long asyour budget is over a million dollars (with afew exceptions) and you like neighbors, theSand Section is one of the greatest livingexperiences in the world. It is truly like beingon vacation 365 days a year. Its a place whereyou cant tell the difference between a dotcom billionaire, a rst class athlete or a lucky,

    early retiree. The dress code is simple: ipops, t-shirts, a tan and a smile. Neighborsthrow a friendly wave at each other as theyshare a glance at the local coffee stop. Thisis world-class living at its nest: the SandSection of Manhattan Beach, California.

    iltmore Hotel

    The largest high rise structure in downtown Hermosa Beach during its heyday, the Biltmore

    Hotel became the center of social activity and a destination point for world travels, Hollywood

    types and anyone who wanted to enjoy the Beautiful Beach.

    Transformed from the Surf and Sand Beach Club in the 1920s between 14th and 15th streets on

    the Strand, the Biltmore changed Hermosa Beach forever and allowed residents and guests to

    enjoy elegance and grandness in a rapidly expanding Hermosa Beach.

    THE bEGINNINGBuilt in 1926, the luxurious hotel originally opened as the Surf and Sand

    beach Clu, and was run on a private asis. After the private clu idea

    ecame a losing proposition a few ears later, the founders and owners

    sold the propert to the Los Angeles Athletic Association, who attempted

    to run in on the same asis. However, this the group sold out to hotel

    interests in 1930, eventually creating the ground work for the Biltmore

    Hotel. A thriving estalishment for close to 40 ears, the uilding was

    acquired by the International Vangelica Society in 1966, and later torn

    down in 1969, marking the end of an era.

    FLOORS OF THE bILTMOREA six story building, the Biltmore Hotel had oors for specic purposes,

    along with a roof top deck.

    LObby

    The most expansive oor, the lobby had everything from a coffee shopkitchen, to a cocktail ar to a swimming pool. Throughout the lo

    were rown and coral upholstered lounges, along with coral lamp

    shades. The Cocktail Room, which was called the Cit Room sat 200,

    had a dance oor and a baby grand piano. Then decorated in sport plaid,

    with bar stools and upholstered chairs, the Cocktail Bar could seat 100

    guests. It also opened directl onto the each and ecame a popular

    place for oth strollers and athers. Meanwhile, the heated swimming

    pool had oth mens and womens dressing rooms that adjoined the

    plunge which opened onto the Strand and each.

    MEzzANINEOnce comprised of a health studio, a large kitchen for guests and a

    clubroom named the Key Room, guests could multitask on this oor.

    The health studio had massage tables, weights and cycles for exercising,

    steam rooms, dressing rooms and showers. The kitchen had everthing

    from a french frer to a meat slicing machine to a walk in refrigerator

    and could serve a complete dinner for up to 2,500 guests. The ke room

    had a scroll shaped bar, which sat 15, a small dance space and enough

    tales and ooths to seat 50 diners or dancers.

    FLOOR 2The oor where everyone came to have a good time, the entire second

    oor was solely for recreation purposes. Three large rooms were used

    for dancing and banquets, with the ballroom extending across the entire

    uilding. Ale to divide the allroom area into two different rooms, one

    could accommodate around 1,500 guests, while the other could hold

    around 1,000.

    FLOORS 3-6Where a total 120 rooms in the hotel were located, each room in the

    biltmore contained a toilet and wash owl, et over half of the rooms

    had a private ath and several had connecting aths. Ever room was

    completely renovated in 1955 with new beds, mattresses, furniture and

    rugs.

    ROOF* Man guest enjoed sunathing, while others were ale to see

    breathtaking, panoramic views of: Catalina, Palos Verdes, the Hollywood

    Hills and Maliu.

    The Messman HomeManhattan beach

    This traditional Cape Cod home withits stone and wood shingle faademeshes an east coast sensibility withthe best of the west. The entryway andliving room share a soaring thirty-footvaulted ceiling with crown molding. Thedramatic central staircase has whitewooden spindles topped by a dark woodhandrail. The oors are wide-planked, stained hickory pecan. The formaldining room has a coffered ceiling and white wainscoting. The great roomand adjoining kitchen with an L-shaped granite-topped island open to a

    yard with an outdoor replace, patio, and discrete dining area. On thelower level is the family recreation room with bar and pantry, an exercise

    room, and an en-suite bedroom and bath. This 4,900 sq. ft. home wasoriginally designed to have six bedrooms. But the owners have convertedone bedroom into an ofce; another has been cleverly transformed intothe master suites second closet. There are three exquisite replaces andthe classic furnishings throughout the home are from the owners previousproperties in Palm Beach, Marthas Vineyard, Boston, and Vail, Colorado.Notice the artwork of Marthas Vineyard artist Gasparini. This light-lledcorner home in the tree section is an oasis of understated elegance.

    The Foster HomeManhattan beachThis new 5600 sq. ft. custom-built beautycombines the simplicity and elegance of

    the Craftsman style with the easy comfortof Southern California beach living.Stepping-stones embedded in the frontlawn lead to a handsome high Dutchdoor. Within is a wide hallway thatprovides clear sight lines to the formalliving room, dining area, great room, kitchen, and backyard. The dark

    oors are Brazilian walnut and the walls are painted a soothing shade ofsilver sage. Tapered columns separate the ground oor living spaces; thesame shape is repeated in the wooden balusters that form the magnicentcentral staircase. The eat-in kitchen boasts a ten-foot island and state of theart appliances. The white slipcovers on the nearby couches are bleachableand washable for family wear and tear. French doors lead to the outdoorliving area with built-in replace and grass yard. The family bedrooms areon the top oor off the sky-lighted stairwell. The downstairs basement hasa family playroom with kids workbench and a Pullman kitchen, a guestsuite, and a movie theatre with a childrens stage for live performances.This home is a true showstopper.

    The Phillipe / Altamour HomeManhattan beachForm follows function in this modern, three-

    story, walk street masterpiece. Not only doesthe playful, multi-colored exterior of polishedcement, steel, and glass welcome the outdoorsin; whole tracks of glass serving as both interior

    oor and ceiling blur the distinctions between

    up and down. In this innovative design, theprivate and public spaces relate to one another,fostering full use of all three living levels. Thelower oor family room/art room/guest room isaccessed through a roll-up steel and glass garagedoor facing the walk street; a koi pond stretches

    from patio to the interior. The interior staircase is glass, as is the cab of theelevator that runs along the spine of the 4,000 square feet home. A doublelayer, 1-1/2 inch thick burgundy curtain transforms the master bedroominto a wine bottle cocoon; the bath has man-made avonite countertopsand a forbo oor. The kids wing is lime green and hot pink. Their desksare fashioned from the rudder of a WWII B-52. The balthaup stainless steelkitchen upstairs is worthy of a master chef and oversees an open plan

    living space with breathtaking views. Wow!

    The Sussman HomeManhattan beachThis family-friendly, custom-built 3,500sq. ft. corner home offers a west coasttake on an Old Florida style beach home.

    A welcoming Dutch front door leads toan open-plan living room, kitchen, anddining area with cedar tongue and grooveceilings and open beams throughout thehouse. Adjacent to the kitchen is a two-TV,cozy red brick bar presided over by a large Durado (caught while shingon E-Bay!) Across the hall is a kids media/playroom with a shutteredinterior window. The ubiquitous granite and stone found in most newhomes have been replaced by old-school ceramic tile and polished woodsurfaces. A capacious second oor hallway with built-in bookshelves leads

    to the four bedrooms. The boys room has a loft for sleepovers; a girls roomhas hand-carved tiles and a Venetian glass mirror hand carried from Italy.On the top oor are a family room and a spacious ocean-view brick deck.The gray exterior is eco-friendly pressed cement, as is the faux-wood front

    porch and side courtyard. The side of the house where the central staircaseis located is shaped like a lighthouse. That says it all: this home is a beaconof warmth and welcome.

    The Wehrly HomeManhattan beachNo need to cross the Atlantic to

    experience la vie francaise; tourthis 5,500 sq. ft. custom built manse

    instead. A stone turret framing thefront entrance only hints at what liesbeyond. The ooring on the entry level isantique Dalle de Bourgogne, reclaimedlimestone from Burgundy, France. The18th century French replace in the living room is so rare that it neededits own passport to leave the country! The grand piano that anks themagnicent front staircase is a prized Louis XV Steinway built in the 1920s.

    All the cabinetry is hand-carved, and much of the arresting artwork waspainted by the owners mother. A ten ft. island topped with a single slabof Calacatta marble dominates the great room. The back stairs, built of

    French baked oak, lead down to the media room, the 1,000-bottle winecellar, a bistro, a project room, and a guest suite. The master suite onthe second oor has a French antique stone replace and a last-of-its-kind freestanding nickel tub. The sunroom on the top oor opens onto aterrace with outdoor replace offering the best hillside views in town. Cest

    fantastique!

    The Harren / McCarthy HomeHermosa beachCross the threshold of this beautiful

    update of a classic 1929 Hermosa Beachbungalow and enter a simpler time.

    Perched at the end of one of the fewremaining walk streets yet to yield to newconstruction, this 2100 sq. ft. remodel tsin perfectly with its vintage neighbors.

    The new ber cement siding duplicatesthe original exterior. So do the white picket fence and the red brick patio.

    Inside, a central staircase divides the entry-level space. The living roomceiling is tongue and groove open-beamed; the white wood wainscotingis waist-high. The cabinetry throughout the home matches an antiquewood dresser next to the front door. The casings around every windowconform to the originals. The spacious, light-lled eat-in kitchen has aceramic tile oor, counter tops of the same soap stone found in the earliestbeach cottages, and a deep farmers sink. The master suite has a gabledceiling, pine oor, and an elegant bath of Carrera marble. There is a guestbedroom, a family room with comfy white sofas and at screen TV, andan ofce with an adjoining ocean-view deck. This home is for Californiadreamin!
