The stars of the silver screen collided with the stars of architecture on a small strip of beachfront in Santa Monica On a Sunday afternoon in July of 1937, a housewarming party was held at 546 Palisades Beach Road in Santa Monica, on one of America’s most exclusive and fabled streets.

Though the home had oblique classical references, it didn’t conform to the prevalent vernaculars of Kiawah Island: plantations, arts and crafts, and shingle cottages. And it was on Ocean Course Drive, one of the most desirable thoroughfares on Kiawah, which listing agent Kay Halsey calls “the Pebble Beach of the East.” Keep reading. #Properties
