About this home

A Rare Golf-Front Fixer with Exceptional Upside at Virginia Country Club Set on an expansive 11,009 sq. ft. lot with 75 feet of prime frontage on the 17th hole of Virginia Country Club, this 4,217 sq. ft. residence presents an extraordinary opportunity to create a custom golf-course estate in one of Long Beach’s most prestigious private club communities. Comparable golf-front homes of similar size are commanding $3,400,000+, making this property a compelling value-add prospect for discerning buyers. Designed for grand-scale living and indoor-outdoor enjoyment, the home centers around an easily accessible interior courtyard pool, visible from the living, dining, and family rooms—an architectural feature rarely found and ideal for reimagining into a showstopping private retreat. The generous floor plan includes 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a family room, and a dedicated office, offering flexibility for modern living. Highlights include a 27’ x 16’ formal living room with fireplace, a 22’ x 15’ formal dining room, and a 30’ x 12’ family room with built-ins and plantation shutters, all providing exceptional scale and natural light. A breakfast nook overlooks the golf course, enhancing everyday functionality with scenic views while sipping the morning coffee. The downstairs secondary bedroom suite is ideal for guests or multigenerational living, while the upstairs primary suite enjoys sweeping views of multiple golf holes and features a massive walk-in closet with abundant storage—a true owner’s retreat waiting to be reimagined. Additional features include an oversized two-car garage with workshop space and extensive built-in storage, perfect for hobbyists or additional customization. While the home requires interior refurbishing, including kitchen and baths, the bones, scale, and location offer tremendous upside. This is a rare chance to renovate or redesign a substantial golf-front property in one of Long Beach’s most coveted enclaves—an opportunity seldom available and rich with potential.
