* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1943, the home is significantly dated. The kitchen features older dark wood cabinetry and tile countertops likely exceeding 20-30 years in age. While the hardwood floors are in good condition and the home is livable, the presence of a wall heater indicates older mechanical systems, and the listing description explicitly identifies the property as an opportunity for updating and personalization.
Situated in the highly desirable 90808 zip code, the property is located in a well-established, tree-lined neighborhood known for its proximity to parks, shopping, and dining.
The generous 5,291-square-foot lot and detached two-car garage offer significant opportunities for future additions, an ADU, or customized outdoor living spaces.
The home is served by the Long Beach Unified School District with access to top-rated institutions like Marshall Academy of the Arts and Henry K-8, both boasting 8/10 ratings.
At just 792 square feet, the interior living area is quite compact for the price point, which may limit appeal for growing families or those requiring a home office.
Built in 1943 and marketed as an opportunity for personalization, the home likely requires a substantial additional investment to update its systems and finishes to modern standards.
3722 Marwick Avenue is a bright, inviting single-story home on a quiet, tree-lined street in Long Beach. A welcoming walkway leads to a designer front door, opening to a light-filled living room with three large double-pane windows and rich, dark walnut-stained oak hardwood floors. The custom kitchen features stainless steel appliances, tile flooring and countertops, dark cabinetry, white counters and backsplash, abundant natural light, recessed dimmable lighting, under-cabinet task lighting and a skylight. French doors open to an expansive, covered Trex deck overlooking the serene, fenced backyard, complete with a lawn, paved patio and space for outdoor dining, entertaining and recreation. A gas hookup and electrical outlet on the deck add convenience for a barbecue or patio heater. The custom spa-inspired bathroom offers a Kohler soaking tub, rich travertine finishes, an integrated-basin sink, brushed nickel fixtures, a skylight and a large frosted window for natural light and ventilation. Both bedrooms feature ceiling fans, walk-in closets and ample natural light. Additional highlights include plantation-style faux wood blinds, generous linen and coat storage, double-pane windows, energy-efficient lighting and a no-smoking history of 40 years. The detached two-car garage features finished walls, excellent lighting and laundry hookups for a gas or electric dryer. A separate 10-by-18-foot shed offers a combination of concrete and wood flooring, loft storage, lighting, multiple electrical outlets and solar-powered ventilation. The property provides up to four additional off-street parking spaces, depending on vehicle size, with one or two spaces behind the backyard gate. High-speed internet options, including fiber-optic service, add modern convenience. The landscaped grounds feature an automated irrigation system designed to adjust watering by zone and season. Conveniently located near Burcham Elementary School and Heartwell Park, with Marshall Middle School nearby, the home also offers access to Millikan and Lakewood high schools and Long Beach City College. Shopping, dining, golf courses, El Dorado Regional Park, the San Gabriel River bike path and major employment centers are all within easy reach.
