Life is good when you can relax in the peace and serenity of your own private oasis. Perfectly situated, mid-block on a beautiful, tree-lined street, just eight lots from a 21-acre park, this is your opportunity to enjoy carefree living in the warm and friendly community of Artcraft Manor. This turnkey home is so welcoming, with gleaming hardwood floors throughout and a vibe that says, “stay awhile.” A brick walkway leads to the sweet front porch with enough room to sit and enjoy the day, wave at neighbors or watch the kids play in the yard. Enter to a bright formal living room/dining room with a fireplace focal point. Two bedrooms and a full bath at the front of the house are balanced by a huge primary suite and family room at the back. Primary suite has walk-in closet, ceiling fan and private bath with dual sinks and frameless, step-in shower. Updated kitchen has storage galore and breakfast bar seating provides a social aspect. The counter tops are granite and most appliances are stainless steel. The walk-in pantry is close at hand – providing efficient, ample storage. If the kitchen is the heart of the home, the family room is the hub. Here you can relax in comfort and enjoy indoor/outdoor living with access to the rear yard and driveway/patio area. The private rear yard is a paradise, professionally landscaped with lush plants, avocado and fruit trees. A raised wood deck, dining area, BBQ center and Jacuzzi spa are perfect for day-to-day enjoyment or entertaining. Night lights create magical evenings in a private and romantic setting. Over-sized, detached 2-car garage sits at the back of the lot – with a long driveway that has a motorized gate at the mid-point. There’s off-street parking for six, or consider an ADU, with parking for four. Additional features include central air conditioning and heat, inside laundry room, ceiling fans, recessed lighting, tankless water heater, copper plumbing, linen storage. The heart of Long Beach location is so convenient – with easy access to top-rated schools, grocery, retail, Costco, coffee shops, dining, parks, golf, colleges, freeways and airport – all within 5-15 minutes of home. Belmont Shore (beach) is 4 miles away and Downtown Long Beach is 5 miles away. At the end of the block, you’ll find Stearns Champion Park – offering baseball and soccer fields plus picnic areas and a community center. A really great home for entertaining or day-to-day living! Make this your dream home and enjoy the good life!
