The Marion Joncich Residence, by architects Joncich & Lusby (1958.) Well situated in San Pedro’s desirable Vista Del Oro neighborhood, with stunning ocean and harbor views. Designed originally for a commercial fisherman and his family, it remains almost entirely intact. Deep eaves shelter glass walls that take full advantage of the views. Sliding glass doors serve to merge indoor and outdoor spaces. Enter to a black slate floored foyer with original decorative screen. A massive, elevated stone and brick fireplace anchors the living room, and an original cantilevered corner wall unit shows sophisticated detailing. In the spacious open plan kitchen/dining room, natural light floods the space; a generous workspace with vast array of original cabinetry that has been outfitted with newer appliances. Another cantilevered wall unit with glass sliding doors provides a curio display case. A walk in pantry and laundry room is adjacent. Original hardwood flooring leads to the bedrooms, which feature deep floor to ceiling closets behind beautiful wood paneled doors. Master bedroom takes in ocean views from a private patio retreat. Bathrooms retain their original tile finishes and once top of line Crane fixtures. New roof installed in 2016. A lower level storage room could become an office or studio, and RD1.5 zoning means the addition of a rental unit is a possibility. This home is a trapped in amber example of mid-century modern design. With the current revitalization of the city's waterfront, it's future is bright.
