Step into a bright, welcoming reception that flows seamlessly into a formal living room, where a large skylight and a cozy fireplace set a warm, inviting tone. From here, sliding glass doors open to an effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle, leading to a comfortable patio and yard space. The living area transitions gracefully into a formal dining room, perfectly positioned for hosting. The kitchen is designed for connection, opening to the dining area over a peninsula breakfast bar—the ideal spot to pull up a stool and chat with the chef. Adjacent to the dining room, a spacious secondary living area features its own fireplace framed by custom built-in cabinetry, with another set of sliders offering easy access to the patio. This home offers three well-appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms. One bathroom is shared near bedrooms, while the second is located near the kitchen and laundry area for added practicality. The primary bedroom is a true standout, featuring an extensive addition currently utilized as a sun-drenched office space with lovely views of the patio. Complete with a two-car garage and a private driveway, this property is perfectly situated in the highly desirable College Park Estates.
College Estates, located between California State University, Long Beach and El Dorado Park, is a residential and campus-adjacent Long Beach neighborhood with mid-century ranch homes and leafy, low-traffic streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Atherton Street near Bellflower Boulevard, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and student-daytime foot traffic set the tempo. Post-and-beam details, wide driveways, and mature shade trees give many blocks a classic Southern California feel. CSULB’s Walter Pyramid and Carpenter Performing Arts Center add a steady calendar of games and stage nights. El Dorado Park’s lakes, trails, and open lawns shape daily routines with long walks and weekend picnics.
