Discover a stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bath custom home situated just 1 block from the beach, ideal for short term rental or 2nd Home, if not your full time OASIS. This home features a fully fenced yard with gated covered parking for up to 4 vehicles, a spacious built-bar for entertaining, storage and a shed for beach essentials & big boy toys, plus a nice sized backyard for a perfect blend of comfort & coastal living. This classic raised Coastal Cottage is constructed of siding & has a metal roof with 2 large covered porches. 1 across the front with a view of the beach, and a side entrance that comes from the downstair parking area. A perfect setup if you are a pet owner, since the underneath & backyard are fully fenced for your fur babies to also enjoy and use the outside shower for fun days with the family at the beach. Upstairs, the home has high ceilings, ceiling fans, luxury vinyl plank flooring, tons of windows for natural light with window shades throughout, and a wide open living area & a spacious kitchen area to enjoy big family gatherings & entertaining friends. The kitchen has an Xtra lg custom quartz covered bar with enoguh room to seat a crowd, custom cabinets (some with glass fronts), GE SS appliances, a gas range, hood vent, DW, MW, Regrigerator, a farm house sink, pendant & recessed lights, a bar area with mini fridge/ or cofee bar, and distressed custom doors opening to a big walk in pantry. This kitchen is a Cook's Dream and the heart of the home, with so much storage, prep and display space. The master suite off the living area opens to the front porch to enjoy the view with your morning coffee or glass of wine at the end of the day. It features a generously sized master bedroom with a large walk-in closet, complete with built-ins like a custom dresser & shelves. The highlight is the large walk-in shower with 2 shower heads for the ultimate spa-like experience. Three guest rooms/office are equally impressive. One with French doors that open to a private side porch & also has the added convenience of a full bathroom which makes hosting family & friends a breeze. Another has its own private bath with a gorgeous tiled shower or tub surround, as in all the baths. A large laundry/mud room combo has the same quartz counters, cabinetry, sink & tons of storage, open to that side porch and has a set of stairs leading downstairs to the fenced yard, parking & entertaining area. This would be a great spot to enstall a lift for ease of getting groceries inside. The Washer / Dryer will stay with the home. The floor plan creates a seamless flow, ensuring that every space is utilized effectively and making it ideal for gatherings & family time. While close to the beach, it is also within walking or biking distance to the downtown area of Long Beach. You will have access to a park, library, resturants, shopping, and entertainment options all within blocks of the home.
