Nestled in Long Beach's award-winning historic district, California Heights, this 1940 gem boasts a seamless mix of beautifully preserved original features and sleek modern upgrades offering 1392 square feet, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms on a private 5697 sq. ft. lot.
Natural light illuminates the expansive living room through a series of large bay windows. Spend cozy nights by the masonry wood and gas-burning fireplace or head outside to one of two private garden spaces; French doors open onto a covered patio from the dining room or relax under the stars on the recently built raised deck.
You'll find original oak hardwood floors throughout much of the home, including in the spacious guest bedroom.
The kitchen features travertine flooring, period-correct wood sash windows, lots of storage space with charming cabinetry, and vintage built-ins like a peek-a-boo ironing board, corner hutch, and a large, light-filled breakfast nook.
A showstopper, the hallway bathroom embodies '40s vintage vibes with original basket-weave tiling, a separate tub and shower, period-correct sash windows, and wall tiles.
The large primary bedroom has been extended and includes recessed lighting, custom French doors for garden access, a walk-in closet and modern bathroom.
A spacious backyard with mature landscaping provides exceptional privacy. The 2-car garage was converted into an office space, complete with a wall-mounted heat/AC unit and high-speed internet. An electronically controlled gate from the alley opens to a paved parking pad that fits 2 cars.
Some recent upgrades include 2 new water heaters, upgraded electrical panel, and a new HVAC system.
Proximity to Blue Ribbon schools, the LBX, neighborhood shops, and eateries add to the incredible value this home and neighborhood offers!
