Have you ever imagined living in one of Southern California’s most walkable urban coastal communities — where coffee shops, acclaimed restaurants, neighborhood events, vintage boutiques, art, culture, and beach-close living are woven into daily life? Seller financing may be considered for highly qualified buyers offering substantial down payment terms, including potential 5.5% financing — a rare opportunity in today’s market to secure favorable financing on a distinctive historic coastal property. Located in the heart of Retro Row within Long Beach’s sought-after Rose Park South Historic District, this thoughtfully restored 1914 Craftsman places you within a true “Walker’s Paradise” with a Walk Score of 90. Residents here intentionally choose this lifestyle — drawn to the neighborhood’s architectural character, cultural energy, and rare blend of urban connectivity and coastal living. Inside, the south-facing residence is filled with natural light and showcases original hardwood floors, rich woodwork, crown moldings, classic built-ins, and preserved architectural details rarely found intact today. More than $200,000 in meaningful infrastructure and energy-efficiency improvements include a cool roof system, blown-in insulation, Mitsubishi Energy Star mini-split HVAC, plumbing and electrical improvements, and a hardwired 240V EV charger. The private zen-inspired backyard retreat features mature bamboo landscaping, a Buddha fountain, Meyer lemon, mandarin, and passion fruit trees, along with expansive patio space designed for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. Additional highlights include a historic 1914 carriage garage and tandem driveway parking for up to five vehicles — a rare advantage in this highly desirable urban coastal neighborhood. To support buyer transparency and confidence, the property has been pre-appraised, pre-inspected, and termite inspection completed, with reports available in supplements for buyer review.
