Two houses on a lot! Originally built in 1937 by architect James R. Friend, this stunning Spanish Colonial Revival home has been meticulously preserved by just three families. Upon entering, you'll be greeted by the original magnesite flooring and a striking circular staircase adorned with an iron bannister. An arched doorway invites you into a sunken living room, where a beamed ceiling, traditional arched fireplace, built-in display niches, peg-and-grooved white oak flooring, and garden views framed by three windows create a warm, inviting space. A remarkable leaded and stained glass picture window further enhances the charm. Since acquiring the home in 2015, the current owners have invested over $300,000 in careful restoration and renovations, ensuring that the historic character remains intact. Several original pieces of furniture and light fixtures may also remain, should the buyer desire. The main house features three bedrooms, a den or office that can double as a guest room, a California basement, inside laundry room and three bathrooms. Highlights include mahogany doors, beamed and coved ceilings, hardwood floors, and some Crane plumbing fixtures. The outdoor area is equally captivating, offering a private courtyard and dining space. Additionally, the second home at 3710 Myrtle Ave, built in 1949, includes two bedrooms, one bath, a fireplace, inside laundry area, a detached garage, and over 1,100 square feet of living space. This home, along with the main residence, has been thoughtfully restored and updated, earning the Long Beach Heritage Preservation Award in 2012. Both properties have been featured in Rejuvenation Catalog, Long Beach Magazine, and The District Magazine. These homes are truly extraordinary! This is an exquisite and unique property truly one of a kind in the neighborhood of Historic California Heights. Itemized extensive renovation list is attached as a supplement for your review.
