About this House
1505 East 37th Long Beach CA 90807
Situated in the historic California Heights neighborhood, one of Long Beach's hidden gems, this 1930 Spanish Colonial Revival house showcases many of its original features as well as modern upgrades that came from a recent major renovation. It's no wonder that this house was chosen to be on the annual Cal Heights Home and Garden Tour. It's historic charm complements its contemporary amenities.
As you enter through the enchanting front garden, you come to a tiled front porch, the perfect spot to enjoy the morning quiet. When you walk into the house and step onto its original oak strip hardwood flooring, you come to see a fabulous layout that is perfect for entertaining guests. In the living room, you'll see an original built-in bookcase, unique semi-exposed beams in the ceiling, period sconces, and a stunning asymmetrical-style faux fireplace with a thick terracotta hearth and mantle. An original arch-top opening to the dining room features two arch top open niches with original Malibu tile on the bottom. The dining room also has a built-in display space.
Stepping into the completely remodeled sleek kitchen, you'll enjoy the tiled flooring, the dark granite countertops, and white subway tile backsplash, which all make upkeep easy. The cabinets in the kitchen have two lit display cabinets and multiple pull-out drawers in most of the white cabinets, which provide amazing storage.
In the bathroom, you'll see many unique qualities. The original semi-sunken black glazed tub and shower combination takes center stage. An eye-catching treasure in the house is the rare 1920s Claycraft macaw Deco tile in the tub area. The laundry room in the main hallway is hidden behind a French door.
The spacious master bedroom has a walk-in closet and windows with espresso-colored plantation shutters. The dimmable sconces and the Spanish style chandelier in the bedroom add to its tranquility. The second bedroom, formerly the kitchen, has the original milk door and arch-top niche which housed the original kitchen medicine cabinet. The hexagonal tile flooring and plantation shutters are additions from the recent remodeling.
The very private backyard, with its water fountain and tiled buffet space, provides another great setting to entertain guests. The backyard keeps landscaping chores simple since its a great space for potted plants.
The new HVAC unit keeps the house temperature very comfortable all year long. The new clay tiled roof replicates the original one, which was replaced in 2011. Also unique to the home are the original chimney pots, a true signature of the Spanish Colonial Revival style.
The California Heights neighborhood was named "Best in the West" by Sunset Magazine and was the 2012 Neighborhood of the Year grand prize winner at the annual Neighborhoods, USA convention. Come enjoy this historic home in this gorgeous, friendly, and award-winning community.
