A rare gem in Long Beach's historic Willmore District! A gorgeous 1913 Craftsman home (2 bed/1 bath), with tons of original charm, PLUS all major systems updated to modern. The pictures tell the story of the living room and dining room: Beatiful wood throughout, kept nice for over 100 years. The entry off the large stone porch welcomes you to a classic home, ready to move in, with lovely hardwood floors throughout most of the home. Beautiful stone fireplace, too (wood, and plumbed for gas). Wait until you see the funky dining room and living room lights! The kitchen has been re-done, with tasteful cabinetry, counters, and appliances, and a lovely original breakfast nook. Central air and heating, tuned-up and running great. Plumbing, electrical, windows have all been updated to modern in recent years, while maintaining the home's original charm. Large full bath with modern tasteful fixtures. Recent tune-ups on all systems, very functional and ready to enjoy. Large cellar, with access from the modest backyard. The long driveway has ample room for two cars, plus there's a very nicely fininshed 1-car garage, with direct access to the home and back yard. Fresh clean concrete, too. These homes don't come along too often, in this kind of condition! Close to Downtown LB, Coastal Areas, 710, shopping and dining options, and Convention Center. Come and get this classic Long Beach time capsule, updated and ready to go.
