What's special
Ideally located in the desirable Los Altos neighborhood of Long Beach, just moments from Minnie Gant Elementary and Cal State Long Beach, 1940 Fanwood Avenue offers the perfect blend of space, function, and charm. From the moment you arrive, the home’s curb appeal stands out, featuring a thoughtfully designed, water-wise front yard. A long driveway, complete with a porte-cochère, leads to a detached two-car garage at the rear of the property. Step onto the inviting brick porch and enter the original living room, which boasts gleaming hardwood floors and a rare two-sided fireplace, offering both wood-burning and gas-fueled options. A charming garden window with plantation shutters provides privacy while allowing natural light to fill the space. The adjoining kitchen is equally captivating, featuring vaulted oak ceilings and a skylight that creates a bright and airy atmosphere. The tile countertops seamlessly flow into the step-down family room addition, where beamed ceilings and a sliding glass door open to the oversized rear yard, perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The home features three well-sized bedrooms, all located along a central hallway with hardwood floors and plantation shutters. The remodeled hall bathroom is brightened by a skylight and has been updated with modern finishes. The spacious primary bedroom offers direct access to the covered rear patio and is complemented by a beautifully remodeled en-suite bathroom. This luxurious bath includes a large walk-in shower with a range of comfort features, including integrated music and two customizable lighting settings. Additional amenities of the home include a newer HVAC system with upgraded ductwork, an owned solar system that powers both the home and its systems, a tankless water heater, and an electric vehicle charging port. At the rear of the garage, a sizable bonus room offers endless possibilities, while the partially finished garage, complete with epoxy flooring, adds further flexibility. This welcoming Los Altos residence offers not only an exceptional location but also thoughtful upgrades, making it an ideal place to call home.
