The WELCOME mat is out and ready for you to enjoy this 1940s CHARMER! Can you say CURB APPEAL in the greatest COMMUNITY?!?! This 3 BEDROOM, 2 BATH home will impress you from the moment you drive down the street in this BIXBY TERRACE neighborhood! After admiring the mature trees, well-kept landscape, and inviting walkway, you will step in the front door to be greeted with the PRIDE of over 60 years of ownership. This shows immediately when you look down to find the original HARDWOOD floors which have recently been exposed and professionally refreshed. Don't forget to notice the charm of the FIREPLACE, COVE ceilings, and the built-in BOOKCASE all found in the living room. Look out the large PICTURE window and sliding door to find a lush green landscaped backyard with a 2 story ELM Tree. Throughout the home, you will find fresh PAINT with new baseboards and light fixtures. The classic kitchen has lots of period cabinetry and hardware with lots of STORAGE. Includes a 2 car garage with alley access and a deep set lot with an avocado and lemon tree. The property has been thoroughly cleaned and staged to help you imagine yourself in the space. BONUS? It is located in the LONGFELLOW Elementary School zone and is within walking distance to SOMERSET PARK with a summer of fun scheduled. Nearby are farmers markets; stores and shopping at the newest "LBX"; and ALL of the fun and entertainment the BIXBY KNOLLS area has to offer. This CLASSIC Long Beach Bixby Terrace home is ready for your immediate move-in! (P.S. Don't miss the cute redwood PLAYHOUSE in the backyard, ready for the perfect playdate equipped with a Dutch door AND its own mailbox)
