3716 Nipomo

Mid-century flair, done with a steady hand. This lovingly updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home pairs the easy proportions of classic post-war architecture with thoughtful modern improvements—and just enough personality to keep things interesting. Set in Carson Park, one of Long Beach’s established early-1950s neighborhoods, the home feels decidedly current without forgetting where it came from. Both bathrooms have been beautifully remodeled, including an en suite primary bath that feels more boutique hotel than suburban ranch. Custom hallway cabinetry adds abundant storage—a particularly clever upgrade in a generation of homes not exactly famous for closet space. Skylights flood the spectacularly remodeled kitchen with natural light, highlighting quartz countertops, designer tile backsplash, crisp white cabinetry and an oversized island with a barstool niche for casual dining. It’s bright, polished and designed for actual life. Out back, Trex decking creates an inviting outdoor dining area alongside a large Jacuzzi-style spa and maintenance-free artificial turf. The front yard takes an equally thoughtful approach, artfully xeriscaped with succulents, pebbles and pavers for curb appeal without the Saturday-morning lawn obligation. And then there’s the infrastructure. Leased solar panels with on-site battery storage help make running the A/C considerably less guilt-inducing—and potentially less expensive. A pre-wired EV charger connection in the driveway lets you put some of that California sunshine toward topping off the car, too. With its mature surroundings, classic post-war character and proximity to the expansive green spaces and recreation of Heartwell Park, this is Carson Park living thoughtfully reimagined for today.
