What a fantastic opportunity to live within the coveted Bixby Knolls community in a condo that is expansive enough to be truly called a home! This mid-century gem is ripe for a few easy modern updates and personal touches, and it will absolutely shine. The front unit of a cozy 4-plex community, impeccably manicured grounds frame the home from a gorgeous stretch of Elm Avenue. A smart floor plan starts with a formal entry, branching off to all areas within. An open-beamed cathedral ceiling and masonry fireplace are featured in the substantial living room and dining ell, with nearly wall-to-wall windows and sliding doors allowing natural light to spill in from the common garden area. The galley kitchen opens from both foyer and dining areas, and features a generous amount of both counter & cabinet space. The home's two large bedrooms each feature a connecting ensuite bathroom, and closet space abounds in both rooms. The garden patio, accessible from both the living room and east bedroom, overlooks the common area pool, waiting to be enjoyed on cool mornings or in the summer sunshine. The private 2-car garage is another fantastic feature, not wholly common with condominiums in the area. Located smack in the middle of ideal walkability to commercial corridors down both Long Beach Blvd. & Atlantic Avenue, this beautiful Bixby Knolls condominium shines with all the amazing aspects it has in its favor.
