Situated in the highly sought-after California Heights neighborhood, the home offers high community value and prestige, located in a district recognized by Sunset Magazine as one of the best places to live in the West.

Despite offering over 1,700 square feet of living space, the home only contains two formal bedrooms, which may restrict its appeal for larger families or buyers needing more dedicated sleeping quarters.
Listed at over $1.1M for a two-bedroom residence, the property commands a premium price that may face competition from larger three-bedroom homes within the same price bracket in Long Beach.
