Property Description
A 2012 Long Beach Heritage Restoration/Preservation award winner, and one of the most meticulously updated homes in Rancho Estates. In a calm interior tract location behind period correct fencing that has been pushed to the perimeters, find a perfectly edited scene pulled straight from a vintage Sunset Magazine. A careful study of architect Cliff May's design led to a thoughtful pairing of restored vintage detailing and sophisticated modern finishes. Original window panels and doors open out to flawless landscapes and patios in all directions. This is the highly desired Lanai model, with a well executed bump out at the kitchen to create a glass walled nook for dining. A detached office / studio built in the far corner of the backyard was fashioned to look as if could have been built by May himself(not included in square footage calculation.) Newer roof with insulation, and recent forced air heat and central A/C. Nothing to do but move right in. It is a rare opportunity to see a Rancho home so completely and tastefully finished.

No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
