Built in 1937, it exudes timeless character while offering thoughtful updates for modern comfort.A welcoming front porch draped in a blooming lavender trumpet vine sets the tone for the warmth inside. The freshly painted interior showcases gleaming original hardwood floors, coved ceilings, and elegant arched doorways. The spacious living room features a cozy gas starter fireplace, perfect for relaxing evenings. A formal dining room with tons of natural light from the ample windows- gives a calm location to enjoy meals. The kitchen features oak cabinetry, granite tiled counters, a convenient desk area and lots of storage.The vintage black-and-yellow tiled bathroom adds a touch of nostalgic charm, while dual-pane windows and a brand-new central heating system bring energy efficiency and comfort.One of the three bedrooms is accessed through the second, making it ideal for a nursery, home office, or creative studio. In addition, a large permitted rumpus room with its own full bathroom offers incredible flexibility—whether for entertaining, a guest suite, or a potential junior ADU (buyer to verify with the city).Convenient driveway leads to the two car garage where washer/dryer hookups reside.With ample storage and closet space throughout, this lovingly preserved home is a rare gem in one of Long Beach’s most desirable historic neighborhoods.
