Detailed Introduction Of This Home
Set in the heart of the coveted Belmont Heights neighborhood in Long Beach, steps from the ocean and Bluff Park & mere minutes walking distance to trendy 4th street and 2nd street as well as sandy beaches, opportunity awaits. This is a rarely available Duplex situated on an oversized 6,501 square foot lot, considered an extra lot for the area; the front "Owners" Unit is a 1923 Spanish Bungalow that has been upgraded and well maintained. Stepping in from the drought-tolerant landscaped front yard and, past the mature strawberry tree & up to the covered porch, the interior is ready to greet you with original hardwood floors in the spacious open concept living/dining room with the decorative fireplace and large picture windows. At the back of the front bungalow is an oversized kitchen remodeled with quality custom cabinetry, solid stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The front unit has two oversized bedrooms and two full bathrooms; the bathroom in the center of the unit is full of the 1923 charm you'd expect from the original tile and built-ins. there is a long driveway accessible from Mira Mar and an alley behind where the garages sit. The front unit is approximately 1,384 square feet. The second unit was built above the garages, is approximately 732 square feet, and is filled with natural light, showing off its original hardwood floors and offering 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom. While the front unit is currently tenant-occupied (on a month-to-month agreement), the rear unit has recently been vacated and is freshly painted, ready to be re-rented by the new owner. There is a spacious landscaped yard in between both units. This property comes complete with five garage spaces. Each unit has included its own two-car garage with private laundry inside. The current owner has used a 5th single-car garage space for on-site storage. This amount of garages is a rare feature for duplex properties in the area.
This rare opportunity to purchase a "two on a lot" duplex in the heart of Belmont Heights doesn't come around often; consider owner occupying the front unit and renting out the back for supplemental income. Don't miss this opportunity to make this your own private home or add this to your real estate portfolio; the possibilities with a rare gem like this are endless.
