Constructed in 1887 in the Folk Victorian style, the Graves House is a Queen Anne Cottage, built for Henry Graves as a vacation house. The house was featured in the 1986 film Top Gun as Charlie's house and has since been known to locals as the “Top Gun Cottage.”
In January 2008, a private developer submitted a proposal to re-develop the oceanfront block on which the Graves House and three other residential properties were located. As a result of the project, the Graves House was restored and relocated 2 blocks away in 2021 nestled in the Mission Pacific Hotel.
