Description
Welcome to this one of a kind residence in Long Beach, a true testament to meticulous craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Originally a charming single-story with two bedrooms, this home underwent a stunning transformation, adding a second story and three additional bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite. The home boasts hickory hand-scraped wood floors throughout the first level, stained glass windows, recessed lighting, tankless water heater and water softener blending timeless craftsmanship with modern amenities. The heart of the home, the kitchen, is a chef's dream featuring custom-made quarter-sawn white oak cabinetry with soft close features, handpicked hardware, pantry and custom lighting. The granite countertops are paired with a hammered copper farm sink and a spacious island, perfect for both everyday meals and entertaining. The open-plan dining and living areas are bathed in natural light and enhanced by a cozy fireplace and a sliding glass door overlooking the private backyard, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The second level is dedicated to comfort and relaxation. The primary bedroom is a serene retreat, featuring a fireplace and a lavish ensuite bathroom with a custom steam mist shower, separate soaking tub, and walk-in closet with premium shelving by California Closets. Two additional well-appointed bedrooms, a spacious full bathroom and a convenient laundry area complete the upper floor. A spacious three-car garage is accessible via a covered driveway extending from the home. The backyard is a private retreat, featuring a beautifully designed sitting area and a custom koi pond, perfect for relaxation and entertaining. Enjoy the benefits of new carpet, surround sound, aluminum-clad wood windows, copper plumbing, hot/cold exterior water lines for outdoor activities and a presidential roof with a lifetime warranty. This home is a rare gem with a blend of classic Craftsman charm and modern comforts. With its thoughtful upgrades and attention to detail, it must be seen in person to be truly appreciated. Don't miss the opportunity to make this exceptional property your own.
