A custom home designed by noted Long Beach architect, Kenneth Wing in 1941. Nestled within the historically designated neighborhood of California Heights. A well laid out and proportioned home that belies its sqaure footage...this is a small home that lives very large. A generous entry porch delivers you into the spacious sun-filled living room with gleaming hardwood floors, large picture window, stately fireplace & mantel and unique side-coved ceiling. The dining area has twin windows overlooking the side drive and doorway leading to the kitchen. The kitchen is outfitted with a full wall of pantry storage, garden window, cabinetry with display nook and exit to rear yard. The hall way is extra wide with coat and linen closets. Both bedrooms are filled with natural light and double closets. The efficiently designed bath features original vanity, tile and tub. The current owner as recently replaced the roof and added forced air and heat. The long front drive features a tall security gate that leads to additional parking area and oversized 2 car garage that also houses the laundry facilities. A huge backyard ensures the possibility of future expansion and a blank slate to design the outdoor space limited only by the boundaries of your imagination.
