“Beauty and the Beast”The author of this article I ready today about the landslide area in Portuguese Bend, Rolling Hills etc couldn’t have named the article any better. This is an area that is one of the most beautiful areas between Santa Barbara and San Diego and while many areas within the South side of the Peninsula are “safe” from movement, including perhaps Zone 2 sections of Portuguese Bend (you can read more here … http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=225573987477111&id=126283734095981), the landslide areas have kept this section of town one of the most tranquil and beautiful in all of California. There really is a silver lining to every cloud! And I know that many people are detrimentally effected (past, present and future); I’m very sensitive to this. That being said, I hope you can enjoy and appreciate the “Beauty” within this “Beast”. Let me add – Portuguese Bend is an area in which my wife and I have aspired to own a home for a long, long time … whether in the slide zone (contact me regarding mitigating strategies) or not … I can only describe it the way Ray Liota and Kevin Costner did in “Field of Dreams” … “Is this Heaven? No it’s Portuguese Bend!” … well Costner said Iowa, but you catch my drift …

Annual Homes Tour to Focus on Portuguese BendThere’s a terrific event coming to Portuguese Bend soon and it will give everyone the opportunity to understand why I say, “Is this Heaven?…” “No, it’s Portuguese Bend”. Quoted from the Palos Verdes Patch… “A container home, which boasts 40-foot metal shipping containers, is one of three Portuguese Bend residences that will be showcased during this year’s Palos Verdes Homes Tour. Others include the home of artist Tom Redfield, a member of the Portuguese Bend Artist Colony. Redfield’s home was built in 1949 by a San Pedro shipbuilder and now features art and cliff and ocean views. The tour will also spotlight Frank Vanderlip’s “The Old Ranch Cottage,” built in 1916 as the first home in Portuguese Bend Colony. The tour will be held 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. April 13-14. The annual fundraiser raises money for the Palos Verdes Art Center. Pre-sale tickets are $40 for Art Center members and $45 for non-members. Tickets will be $50 the day of the event. Each ticket includes a tour of the homes, lunch and boutique shopping. For more information, call the Art Center at 310-541-2479 or visit www.pvartcenter.org.” For information on Portuguese Bend Homes for sale please follow the link below and feel welcome to play this video tour of Portuguese Bend!
