Description
A rare East Long Beach ranch-style opportunity! This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 1,529 square feet of living space on a spacious corner lot of more than 6,000 square feet. A white picket fence and brick front porch add classic curb appeal, while the generous yard offers room to enjoy now and explore future possibilities. The heart of the home is an added expansive bonus room with vaulted wood ceilings and a fireplace—a welcoming space for gathering, relaxing, or creating a room that fits your needs. The home also features some original wood flooring, a brick family-room wall ready to be brought back to life with paint or a finish, mirrored closet doors in two bedrooms, and charming wood shutter-style closet doors in another. The kitchen retains its original cabinetry and offers an opportunity to make it your own. It borders the front yard and side yard so add widows or doors and put in an island. Out back, an impressive vaulted covered patio extends the living space outdoors, with a roofline that complements the home. Brick pillars and brick ribbons, a old custom fire pit, newer fencing for privacy, and multiple gates create a distinctive backyard setting. The side-facing detached garage offers drive-through access to a rear carport, along with a full-length driveway beside the home. Updated windows and sliding glass doors, plus newer sewer and a beautiful roof, add to the home’s appeal. Ready for some simple updating throughout, this special property offers character, a flexible single-story layout, and exciting potential in an established East Long Beach neighborhood. Very close to El Dorado Regional Park with playgrounds, a nature center, train ride and sport facilities. The East Spring corridor offers grocery stores and Starbucks and Long Beach Town Center is just 1.6 miles from home.
