About This Property

Discover this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath California cottage located on a picturesque Jacaranda-lined street in Long Beach's Wrigley neighborhood, where the trees come alive with vibrant purple blooms in late spring and early summer. Built in 1942, the home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates and offers comfortable living space, a detached two-car garage, and a spacious lot. The inviting front yard, long driveway, and attractive curb appeal welcome you inside, where abundant natural light, updated flooring, crown molding, and ceiling fans create a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The spacious living room features a beautiful stone fireplace with wood accents and built-in shelving, while the formal dining room flows into an updated kitchen with granite countertops, ample cabinet space, and a bright breakfast area overlooking the backyard. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet, private bathroom, and French doors leading to a flagstone patio. One of the home's standout features is the vintage main bathroom, where the original red tile, separate shower, and bathtub have been beautifully preserved, offering a unique blend of character and charm. The backyard is designed for everyday enjoyment with newly installed sod, mature landscaping, multiple patio areas, a rose garden, and plenty of space for outdoor entertaining, gardening, or recreation. The detached two-car garage and extended driveway provide excellent parking and flexibility. Buyers may wish to explore the potential for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU), subject to verification with the City of Long Beach. Ideally located within walking distance of Birney Elementary School and just four miles from the beach, this home also offers convenient access to parks, shopping, dining, schools, and major freeways. With its timeless character, functional layout, spacious outdoor areas, and desirable location, this classic Wrigley home offers an exceptional opportunity to own in one of Long Beach's most established neighborhoods.
