Mid-Century cachet in Long Beach’s Bixby Knolls Distinguished by a rare double corner homesite in the highly sought-after Long Beach community of Bixby Knolls, this exceptional Mid-Century California ranch house maintains its period-perfect cachet while carefully revealing appreciated yet subtle new improvements. Mature shade trees, some dating back more than 70 years, combine with lush landscaping to contribute to unparalleled privacy on grounds of nearly one- half acre that sits on two separate parcels. Meandering pathways, a classic rectangular swimming pool, fragrant and colorful gardens, and exotic tropicals create a sense of wonder and provide a gorgeous backdrop for parties and kickback relaxation. The indoor/outdoor nature of the single-level home makes it easy to entertain throughout the year in a floor plan that spans approximately 3,200 square feet and offers three bedrooms and five baths. A bright front door opens to a welcoming foyer that leads to a generous living room with bay window and fireplace. The formal dining room is framed with inlaid mirrors, and an office with built-ins means working from home is even more rewarding. Mid-Century meets old-school diner in the kitchen, where a nook with built-ins, white cabinetry, a pantry, electric cooktop, and vintage double oven are joined by an in-counter gas grill. Bedrooms are large and comfortable, and the primary suite goes further with a sunken garden-view tub, backyard access and expertly crafted built-ins. Freshly painted interior spaces, new plumbing throughout, a tankless water heater and restored woodwork blend seamlessly with the original wood and tile flooring and floor-to- ceiling windows. A detached studio with kitchen and bath and a glass-enclosed cabana room with massive bath offer future rental possibilities at this peerless property, which is walking distance to restaurants and coffee shops on Atlantic Avenue and Wardlow Road. Monthly First Friday events bring the community together to enjoy street vendors, food and music, and schools and parks are moments from home. The sands of Long Beach and Seal Beach are about 15 minutes south, and LA’s vibrant Arts District is just 14 miles away. With room to grow, room to build or to keep this magical place all to yourself, it will be yours to decide. Welcome to your forever home.NOTE: Property is in 2 separate parcels.
