Alberto Carvalho is ready to bid Los Angeles adieu after a chaotic last few months.
The disgraced former LAUSD head listed his luxurious San Pedro home for $1,899,000 on Monday, The California Post can reveal.
Carvalho’s home is just a piece of his multi-million dollar real estate portfolio, which also spans several properties in Florida. But it signals the schools chief, who resigned months after the FBI served search warrants at the property, his office and a Miami home, is done with SoCal.
The Post previously spotted him at his San Pedro home doing laps on his rooftop yard and living a low-key life in isolation there. Carvalho was later seen shopping at a local Von’s in May with his wife, Maria.
Maria was seen smiling while her husband pushed their trolley packed with at least three bags full of goods. Carvalho then drove them back to their home before they carried the groceries up the steps and into their home.
When asked about the investigation into him, he simply smiled and told The Post: “We’re talking to our attorney at this point.”
Carvalho’s LA home is described as a “masterfully reimagined 1920s Craftsman” that lives “like a private coastal sanctuary.”
“Remodeled with uncompromising attention to detail, every element of this home has been thoughtfully curated with premium materials and designer finishes,” the listing describes it. It has a backyard with a fire pit and “breathtaking panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and Catalina Island.”
The home is a 3-bed, 2-bathroom abode spanning about 2,000 square feet. The abode sits on a 5,628-square-foot lot and was built in 1928.
A neighbor told The Post that Carvalho could be assertive while he lived there and even climbed over his fence once.
John Schafer, 62, described Carvalho as pushy, recounting how he once caught him climbing over his fence to get into his backyard while carrying garden trimmers.
Schafer, who lives two doors down from Carvalho, claimed he was attempting to trim a bush growing on a fence.
He told The Post: “He climbed into my backyard to cut the bush. It was a really bizarre experience. It happened at the beginning of his term as Superintendent.”
He continued: “In the end, I helped him trim the bush. It held sentimental value to me because I buried my cat under it.”
It’s unclear if Carvalho plans to leave Los Angeles entirely.
He’s been replaced as superintendent with longtime district administrator Andrés Chait. A confidential letter sent to Carvalho warned the embattled schools chief that the board had potential grounds to fire him, leading to his ouster.
