CUSIP No. 12232C108                                   Page 14 of 28 Pages



          This Amendment No. 2 ("Amendment No. 2") amends and supplements
the Statement on Schedule 13D ("Schedule 13D"), filed on January 13, 2000,
by (i) Westbrook Real Estate Partners, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability
company ("WREP"), (ii) Westbrook Real Estate Partners Management II,
L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("WREM II"), (iii) Westbrook
Real Estate Fund II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("WREF II"), (iv)

a Delaware limited liability company ("Holdings"), (vi) Westbrook Burnham
Co-Holdings, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company ("Co-Holdings"),
(vii) Gregory J. Hartman ("Hartman"), a member of WREP, (viii) Paul D.
Kazilionis ("Kazilionis"), a member of WREP, (ix) Jonathan H. Paul
("Paul"), a member of WREP, (x) William H. Walton III ("Walton"), a member
of WREP, (xi) Patrick K. Fox ("Fox"), a member of WREP, and (xii) Keith B.
Gelb ("Gelb")(a member of WREP. WREP, WREM II, WREF II, WRECIP II,
Holdings, Co- Holdings, Hartman, Kazilionis, Paul, Walton, Fox and Gelb are
sometimes referred to collectively herein as the "Reporting Persons" or
"Westbrook".

Item 1.    Security and Issuer.

          This statement on Schedule 13D (this "Schedule 13D") relates to
the Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of
Burnham Pacific Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Issuer" or
"Burnham"). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at
110 West "A" Street, San Diego, California 92101.

Item 4.    Purpose of the Transaction.

          The information set forth in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby
amended and supplemented by the following:

On August 15, 2000, Holdings, Co-Holdings, Blackacre SMC Master Holdings,
L.P. ("Blackacre SMC"), Blackacre SMC II Holdings, LLC ("Blackacre SMC II",
and, together with Blackacre SMC, "Blackacre") and Burnham entered into a
letter of intent (the "Letter of Intent"), which sets forth non-binding
agreements in principle regarding certain matters, including (a) amending
Burnham's by-laws to extend the deadline for submission of board
nominations and shareholder proposals, (b) reducing severance packages of
senior management and decreasing operating costs in general, (c) enhancing
Westbrook's and Blackacre's observation rights with respect to meetings of
the board of directors of Burnham, (d) formulating a plan of liquidation
for Burnham's assets, (e) the timing of the next annual meeting of
Burnham's shareholders, (f) modifying certain rights, and the exercise of
certain rights, of Westbrook and Blackacre under their respective preferred
equity investments and (g) identifying and supporting the election of
individuals to serve on the board of directors of Burnham. A copy of the
Letter of Intent is attached hereto as Exhibit 7.4 and is incorporated

<PAGE>


CUSIP No. 12232C108                                   Page 15 of 28 Pages


herein by reference. This item 4 is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the complete text of the Letter of Intent.

Westbrook, Blackacre and Burnham are currently working towards a definitive
agreement regarding the matters set forth in the Letter of Intent. There
can be no assurance, however, that such a definitive agreement will be
entered into, or, if entered into, that such a definitive agreement will
not differ materially from the agreements in principle set forth in the
Letter of Intent.

Westbrook views the recent determination by Burnham's Board of Directors
(the "Board") to attempt to slash operating expenses, change management and
propose to liquidate the assets of Burnham as a positive turn of events.
These steps are or, when implemented, will be in the best interests of all
of Burnham's stockholders in light of the strength of the California real
estate markets. Westbrook believes that management issues and stockholder
strife have suppressed the price of Burnham shares on the market, and that
a liquidation is the best avenue to unlock the value of Burnham's assets.
Westbrook expects to work with the existing members of the Board as well as
any new members elected at Burnham's upcoming annual meeting so that
Burnham may effect an orderly liquidation of Burnham's assets.

Westbrook believes that it is in the interest of all stockholders to create
a stable corporate environment while Burnham makes the transition from an
operating company to a final disposition of its assets. In this regard,
Westbrook has indicated its willingness to refrain for a limited period of
time from electing to receive the change of control preference to which
Westbrook is entitled under the terms of Westbrook's preferred stock
investment. Westbrook has also indicated its interest in assisting the
Board in the evaluation of potential third-party liquidators and their
plans for unlocking the value inherent in Burnham's portfolio.

Except as set forth above and in the Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting
Persons has any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any
of the actions set forth in parts (a) through (j) of item 4.

Item 7.    Material to be Filed as Exhibits.


     Exhibit                    Description
     -------                    -----------

       7.4         Non-binding Letter of Intent by and among
                   Holdings, Co-Holdings, the Issuer and
                   Blackacre.

                           Summary of Agreements

1. The bylaws of Burnham Pacific Properties, Inc. (the "Company") shall be
amended to postpone the deadline for timely notice of board nominations or
shareholder proposals for ten (10) days from the deadline that is currently
in effect, so that the new effective notice date will be August 29, 2000.
Such amendment shall be confirmed by a certificate of the Secretary of the
Corporation and an opinion of counsel satisfactory to Westbrook Burnham
Holdings, L.L.C., Westbrook Burnham Co-Holdings L.L.C., Blackacre SMC
Master Holdings, L.P. and Blackacre SMC II Holdings, LLC (collectively, the
"Preferred Shareholders").

2. The board of directors of the Company (the "Board") shall accept the
resignation of J. David Martin as Director and as President and Chief
Executive Officer, with severance package payments not to exceed an
aggregate of $1.575 million paid over three years, except as accelerated in
a change of control, and COBRA benefits at a total cost to the Company of
approximately $28,000. The Board shall appoint Scott Verges as the interim
Chief Executive Officer of the Company, to serve at least until the next
annual meeting of the Company's shareholders. All meetings of the Board
will be open to the exercise by the Preferred Shareholders of observation
rights, and the Board will not exclude Preferred Shareholders under any
claim of executive session; provided that the Board may exclude the
Preferred Shareholders solely from that portion of such meetings where (a)
arrangements between the Company, on the one hand, and the Preferred
Shareholders, on the other hand, or specific actions with respect to the
Preferred Shareholders are being discussed or (b) the presence of the
Company's counsel is required in order to counsel or advise the Board on
pending or ongoing litigation and the presence of the Preferred
Shareholders would eliminate the attorney-client privilege between the
Company and such counsel.

3. Subject to applicable legal and contractual limitations, the Company
shall use its reasonable efforts to negotiate decreased severance packages
for senior management reasonably acceptable to the Preferred Shareholders
and to reduce staff as appropriate for liquidation.

4.  [Intentionally omitted.]

5. The Board shall propose a plan of liquidation (the "Plan") at the next
shareholder meeting of the Company which shall occur no later than November
14, 2000, unless (a) the Company has been enjoined by a court of competent
jurisdiction from holding such meeting and is contesting such injunction
diligently and in good faith or (b) the Board makes a good faith
determination (such determination to be supported by an opinion of Goodwin,
Procter & Hoar, LLP, or other counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Preferred Shareholders) that, in order to comply with the Board's fiduciary
or other duties owed to the Company's shareholders, the Board or the
Company's shareholders need additional time to consider a bona fide
proposal for the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets,
merger, reorganization or other comparable transaction, in which case such
meeting shall be delayed until the Company is no longer so enjoined or
until the Board has satisfied its fiduciary obligations, as the case may
be. No such delay shall affect any exercise of rights on or after November
14, 2000. The Board and the Preferred Shareholders will work jointly to
prepare such a plan of liquidation, or a summary of such a plan, to be
attached to and incorporated by reference in the definitive agreement
between the Company and the Preferred Shareholders.

6.  [Intentionally omitted].

7. The Articles Supplementary (the "Articles") relating to the Series
1997-A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") shall be amended
to provide that if the Plan is not approved by the Company's shareholders
prior to November 14, 2000, then the Preferred

                                                                  EXHIBIT A

Shareholders shall then and thereafter be entitled to elect a Change of
Control Preference (as defined in the Articles). The Preferred Shareholders
shall agree not to reinstate their election of Change of Control Preference
which is currently suspended, unless approval of the Plan does not occur as
aforesaid. The Preferred Shareholders shall further agree that from the
date hereof until November 14, 2000, they shall not deliver an election of
Change of Control relating to the Plan or any proposal other than the Plan
unless such other proposal is supported by the Board or unless approval of
the Plan does not occur as aforesaid.

8. The Articles shall also be amended to provide that the Preferred Stock
shall be redeemable at the option of the Preferred Shareholders on or after
September 30, 2001 at a price equal to the Change of Control Preference.

9. In lieu of amending the Articles Supplementary, the Company may offer to
issue to the Preferred Shareholders, in exchange for their Preferred Stock,
a new series of preferred stock that has the same terms as the Preferred
Stock as amended by the amendments described herein.

10. If the Plan is approved by the requisite number of the Company's
shareholders, the Preferred Shareholders will agree to not deliver a Change
of Control Election based on any Change of Control resulting from the Plan
through March 31, 2001, provided that (a) the Preferred Shareholders shall
have the right to approve any dividends that the Company pays to its common
shareholders through March 31, 2001, other than quarterly dividends not
exceeding current quarterly dividends paid out of operating cash (the
definition of which will be agreed upon by the Company and the Preferred
Shareholders in the definitive agreement) of the Company, and which may
only be paid if the Company is current in its dividends to the Preferred
Shareholders, and (b) after March 31, 2001, the Preferred Shareholders
shall be entitled to deliver a Change of Control Election with respect to
the Plan. Subject to paragraph 7 above and this paragraph 10, the Preferred
Shareholders shall retain the right to deliver a Change of Control
Election, which shall not be suspended, with respect to any event occurring
after the date hereof other than with respect to the Plan or any event
consistent with or pursuant to the Plan.

11. The definitive agreement between the Company and the Preferred
Shareholders shall have attached to it a list of individuals acceptable to
the Preferred Shareholders for election to the Board at the Company's next
annual shareholders' meeting. The Board's nominees for directors to be
elected at such meeting shall come from the individuals included on such
list. In the definitive agreement, the Preferred Shareholders shall agree
to vote at such meeting all their shares for the election of such nominees,
for the Plan and against any other plan of liquidation which has not been
approved by the Board.

12. The definitive agreement will also provide that Blackacre SMC Master
Holdings, L.P. and Blackacre SMC II Holdings, LLC shall convert all of
their Preferred OP units to the same series of Preferred Stock held or to
be held by Westbrook Burnham Holdings, L.L.C. and Westbrook Burnham
Co-Holdings L.L.C., subject to any reduction in the number of converted
Preferred OP units required so as not to violate applicable NYSE listing
regulations. If any such reduction is necessary, the Company agrees to
amend the term of the Preferred OP units to provide for the same economic
benefits to which the Preferred Stock is entitled to under the foregoing
agreements.

              BURNHAM PACIFIC ANNOUNCES PROPOSED LIQUIDATION


SAN DIEGO, August 15, 2000 -- Burnham Pacific Properties, Inc. (NYSE:BPP)
today announced that its Board of Directors has completed its extensive
review of the Company's strategic alternatives and has concluded
that it is in the best interests of the Company's stockholders to liquidate
the Company on an orderly basis.

In the fall of 1999, the Company retained Goldman, Sachs & Co. to assist
the Company's Board of Directors in a review of strategic alternatives.
Proposals to acquire the Company were solicited from numerous parties.
After a thorough review, the Board of Directors determined that the bid
prices and terms were not adequate. In addition, the Board of Directors
considered and determined not to proceed with a proposal to reorganize the
Company.

The Board of Directors intends to adopt a final plan of liquidation, in
time for the plan to be submitted to and considered by the Company's
stockholders at the upcoming annual stockholders meeting, currently
scheduled for October 18, 2000. The Board of Directors plans to have the
Company retain a third party to oversee and manage the liquidation process,

current August 19, 2000 deadline.

Additionally, in anticipation of the proposed liquidation, J. David Martin
has resigned as chief executive officer and as a Director of the Company.
Scott C. Verges, the Company's chief administrative officer and general
counsel, will serve as the Company's interim chief executive officer.
