Property Description
Great opportunity to own a historic 1913 Craftsman in Long Beach's highly desirable Bluff Heights -just three blocks from the beach. Designated a historic site and eligible to participate in the Mills Act (through application with the City of Long Beach), this well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 1,212 sq. ft. of inviting, single-level living.
Inside, you'll find many original Craftsman details, including wainscoting, built-in shelving, custom wood window casings, crown molding, custom baseboards, hardwood floors and a brick fireplace.
