Property Description
Welcome to this beautifully restored 1928 Spanish bungalow nestled on a picture-perfect street in North Long Beach. Set on a generous 5,284 sq ft lot, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath gem blends timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades. From the moment you arrive, the Saltillo tile entry and original front door with vintage hardware set the tone for the warmth and craftsmanship found throughout. Inside, original cove and tray ceilings create a cozy, inviting atmosphere, while the spacious living room is bathed in natural light from dual-pane windows. Period details like built-in cabinetry, a mock fireplace with sconces (and TV plug), original moldings, recessed lighting, and ceiling speakers add both charm and functionality. The open-concept kitchen is a showstopper, featuring Cypress green shaker cabinets with antique brass hardware, white quartz countertops, a stylish tile backsplash, LED recessed lighting, a large breakfast bar, and new stainless steel GE appliances. A built-in desk area makes it ideal for remote work or study. Both bedrooms are generously sized with coved ceilings, original shaker doors, restored hardware, and ample closet space. The bathroom is a perfect blend of vintage and modern, with white beveled tile tub surround, matte black fixtures, a rain shower with wand, a green vanity with quartz top, and original white hex tile flooring with yellow rosettes. The home has been upgraded with new white oak LVT flooring throughout, new baseboards, an energy-efficient HVAC system, full electrical rewire with 100-amp service, copper plumbing, and a newer composition roof. The service porch includes stackable laundry hookups and a newer water heater. Fresh interior and exterior paint, new landscaping, and a sage green fabric awning complete the picture. Step into your private backyard oasis with lush new sod, sprinklers, and plenty of space for entertaining, gardening, or even building your dream ADU. The oversized one-car garage is fully finished with new paint, washer hookups, a brand-new garage door, and Genie opener. Located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood with easy access to shops, schools, parks, and the beach, this home isn't just a place to live--it's a place to thrive. Come fall in love and make it yours.
