Charming updated Craftsman cottage tucked into the desirable Bluff Heights neighborhood of Long Beach. This 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home offers 883 square feet of living space on a 2,250 square foot lot, set privately behind a fully fenced yard with lush landscaping and water fountains. Inside, the living and dining areas feel bright and inviting with hardwood flooring throughout, vaulted ceilings. The renovated kitchen features stainless steel throughout and a built-in wine fridge, opening to a dining area with a coffee bar made for entertaining. The updated bathroom offers a spa-style rain shower. The primary bedroom is bright with multiple windows and a walk-in closet, and most of the newer custom windows are double-paned. Outside, a welcoming front porch and a private side patio screened by tall bamboo create a quiet outdoor retreat, while a tiled driveway and electronic gate lead to two enclosed parking spaces. Ideally located just steps from Retro Row, the Long Beach Museum of Art, neighborhood coffee shops, and the ocean.
