Welcome to this 115 year old California Craftsman Bungalow in the heart of Alamitos Beach. This property is walking distance to restaurants and shops on Broadway, close to downtown, and 4 short blocks to the beach. Shady trees along the street and in the fenced front yard invite you to relax on the large front porch.
Inside, this unique home has many original historic details: a striking coffered ceiling, built-in buffet, bookcases, a desk, bay window with a bench seat, faux fireplace, glass door knobs, and more.
The period-appropriate kitchen has white cabinetry, granite countertops and modern appliances. Just off the kitchen is a half bath, and inside laundry. All appliances stay with the property: stove, fridge, microwave, washer and dryer.
The two bedrooms have the original hardwood floors and large closets. The full bathroom is conveniently located between the two bedrooms, with doors to each room. It has a period appropriate claw foot tub, tile floors, and original medicine cabinets.
The peaceful backyard with bamboo and flowering vines is perfect for meditation or for entertaining. There is a natural flagstone area, and a paved brick area. There is also access to the garage from the backyard.
The previous owner had updated the electrical wiring, and installed a tankless water heater and copper plumbing approximately 16 years ago.
There is an ADT alarm system. Heating is a floor furnace.
The property has a 1 car garage and a driveway that fits 3-4 cars. Additional storage includes a small basement in the garage and walk-up attic storage. This is a rare opportunity for an affordable historic home that has been lovingly preserved for the past 115???????????????????????? years.
