Grab this chance to own a historic 1913 Craftsman in Long Beach’s highly desirable Bluff Heights —just three blocks from the beach. Designated a historic site and eligible to participate in the Mills Act (through application with the City of Long Beach), this well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers 1,212 sq. ft. of inviting, single-level living.
Inside, you’ll find many original Craftsman details, including wainscoting, built-in shelving, custom wood window casings, crown molding, custom baseboards, hardwood floors and a brick fireplace. Unique upgrades include a central vacuum system (recently serviced), custom Spanish tiles in the kitchen, recessed lighting throughout, along with a newer water heater and a reinstated floor heating unit.
Enjoy outdoor living with a deep front porch featuring custom brickwork, plus a large rear wood deck—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The front landscaping has been recently updated with drought-tolerant, area-appropriate plants. Additional highlights include a one-car garage and a shared driveway along the side of the home.
Open house this Sunday, March 22nd, 2026, from 2 pm - 4 pm
