About this home

Beautifully remodeled, 2 homes on one lot, in the heart of Belmont Heights! Situated on an oversized lot, this exceptional property features a spacious two-bedroom, one-bath front home and a charming one-bedroom, one-bath rear residence, each with its own private outdoor living space and a 2 car garage plus 3 parking spots! Perfect for owner-users or investors!
The inviting front home features a welcoming front porch, spacious living and dining areas with a wood-burning fireplace, and a beautifully updated kitchen with newer appliances, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, abundant cabinetry, and access to the backyard. The remodeled bathroom showcases a nine-foot quartz countertop, custom cabinetry, and a dedicated makeup area. The generously sized primary bedroom offers 12 feet of closet space, while the second bedroom features built-in shelving and a closet. A spacious rear patio is ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining.
Tucked privately at the rear, the delightful one-bedroom, one-bath residence features its own entrance, a remodeled kitchen with granite countertops and eat-in bar, an updated three-quarter bathroom, and a comfortable living area with a wall of built-in cabinetry. A private brick patio, grassy yard shaded by mature trees, and storage shed complete this charming retreat.
Generous parking includes a two-car garage, two additional driveway spaces, and a parallel parking space in the alley. Adjacent to the garage is a separate laundry area with a three-quarter bathroom (unpermitted). The garage and adjoining space may offer potential for ADU conversion, subject to city approval.
Ideally located in one of Long Beach's most desirable neighborhoods, just moments from the shops, cafés, and restaurants of Fourth Street's Retro Row, with the beach and Belmont Shore's vibrant Second Street nearby. A wonderful opportunity to enjoy the Belmont Heights lifestyle while benefiting from the flexibility and income potential of two beautifully updated residences!
