337 Temple Ave Long Beach, CA 90814

Agent Remarks: Highly upgraded Spanish Revival just three blocks from the beach in the heart of historic and beautiful Bluff Heights, one of Long Beach’s most upbeat, fun and happening neighborhoods! This lovely home seamlessly blends vintage charm and an open floorplan with original period details (so cool!). Recent high-end modern upgrades include: Tesla home battery (powers the whole house off-grid! Zombie apocalypse? No problem!); Tesla solar (fully paid off); Tesla car charger; high efficiency 18 SEER HVAC; new ducting, whole house steam humidifier; Aprilaire 5000 whole house electrostatic and traditional air filtration (clean air!); full roof replacement; recessed LED lighting; 1” copper water main; upgraded electrical panel; and custom landscaping with native plants, a dry river in the front and water runoff collection. An abundance of windows (double hung!) bring the light in all day long. There are original hardwood floors. The ample living room invites you to relax around the brick accent fireplace and enjoy a laugh with friends. Hand laid mosaic floor art and a beautiful archway lead to the large formal dining room which is open to the kitchen, perfect for entertaining. Gorgeously remodeled, the kitchen has Quartz counters, white shaker style cabinets, stainless appliances and lots of storage throughout. Both bedrooms are very good sized and either could work as a primary bedroom, office, kids’ room, den – you name it. Vintage fab, the bathroom features original black and white tile, a cool period pedestal sink, a separate bath and shower and retro vanity. In the backyard, you have two separate tiled seating areas framed by lots of easy-care greenery and overhead string lights. Enjoy dining alfresco on one side and create an outdoor living room on the other (balmy nights under the stars!!). The location of this home can't be beat - the beach, the popular East Village Arts District, 4th St's famous Retro Row and the Broadway Corridor are all a few blocks away. If you love the sun and sand, easy access to one-of-a-kind restaurants, eclectic coffee shops, people watching, galleries, vintage stores, wine bars, craft beers, concerts, movies, the farmers market, walking and bike paths, and free yoga on the bluff — then you will love living here. What are you waiting for? It's time to enjoy life at the beach!
