One of the finest examples of Spanish revival architecture in North Long Beach is now available to the market, featuring the best aspects of this iconic style, 225 E 56th Street is more than a home, it’s a feeling. The hand crafted wooden front door leads into a captivating interior. Original hardwood floors pridefully welcome you inside and seamlessly shine throughout the home. Coffered ceiling detail, striking iron work, handcrafted built-in natural-wood cabinetry, original candelabra wall sconces, and the faux fireplace all contribute to the essence of 225 E 56th. Amongst the old world charm apparent around every corner, modern living and functionality have been thoughtfully blended into the identity of the home. Over $100,000 in recent upgrades and improvements have been performed. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and reconfigured with new custom cabinetry, stainless steel Wolf appliances, butcher-block countertops, and a sunken farmhouse sink. The main bathroom has undergone a total overhaul, boasting designer terracotta flooring, custom tile-work, new shower & tub, and upgraded copper plumbing. The second bathroom was recently added onto the home and tastefully executed. 4 mini-split AC units have recently been installed, one in each of the 3 bedrooms, and one in the living room. The home's original vintage windows have been professionally restored with new wood, repainted, and reinstalled within the last year. Situated on a large 5,465 square foot lot, the backyard hosts a variety of mature fruit trees, covered patio, and alley access ideal for an ADU. Conveniently located just minutes away from the library, park, Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, and both 91 & 710 freeways.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
