3761 Rose Ave, Long Beach, CA 90807

This romantic and very private 3 bedroom, 2 bath Spanish style home in the historic district of California Heights in Long Beach will charm you from the moment you walk through the gate. Located on the most sought-after stretch of Rose Avenue, built in 1931, is a stunning example of the Spanish style. Throughout the lovingly restored and enhanced home, you'll find thick stucco walls, high ceilings with sensuously curved vaults and rough-hewn beam accents, arched doorways, original vintage light fixtures and sconces, hand-crafted millwork including abundant built in cabinetry and niches, terracotta tile floors accented with colorful hand painted tile insets, as well as the original hand-pegged plank wood floors. In addition to the private bedrooms and baths, the home offers a completely redone kitchen, designed in keeping with the Spanish style, that includes stainless steel appliances, colorful tile accents, and a large butler's pantry. Other highlights include formal living room with fireplace, formal dining room, and an expansive great room with freestanding fireplace that opens to the large backyard. Here, you'll be transported to Spain (or Mexico, if you prefer!) with a sparkling pool and spa, terrace and covered outdoor dining room with built in BBQ.
