About This Property

In the heart of Greenbelt Heights-where palm trees sway overhead and colorful bungalows line the quiet, sun-drenched street-stands a 1920s Spanish Colonial that feels like it's been plucked from an old postcard. Here, mornings begin with the glow of sunlight spilling through double-pane windows onto classic oak and fir floors, and evenings wind down in the soft curve of an arched doorway or the cozy glow of a vintage glass doorknob. The original charm is everywhere-exquisite moldings, a darling built-in buffet, and that iconic barrel tile roof-but every inch has been thoughtfully updated for modern life: a complete copper repipe, upgraded electrical, tankless water heater, fresh insulation, refinished hardwoods, contemporary windows, and a chic, refreshed kitchen and bath. Step out the back door for your morning coffee in a private courtyard just off the kitchen, or open the front bedroom's French door to your own private retreat. The block is peaceful and car-light, dead-ending into the refurbished Greenbelt, a meandering path that leads you to the refreshing Colorado Lagoon, the Broadway Corridor's coffee shops and boutiques, and the beaches of Belmont Shore-all in minutes by foot or bike. The detached garage isn't just for parking-it's finished and ready for laundry, storage, or your next creative project. And above it? A fully permitted bonus room just waiting to become your art studio, music lounge, or stylish guest hideaway. This is more than a home-it's the Long Beach Lifestyle. A place where vintage soul meets fresh, creative energy. A bungalow you'll fall in love with, and never want to leave.
