About 225 E 56th St
One of the finest examples of Spanish revival architecture in North Long Beach is now available to the market, featuring the best aspects of this iconic style, 225 E 56th Street is more than a home, it’s a feeling. The hand crafted wooden front door leads into a captivating interior. Original hardwood floors pridefully welcome you inside and seamlessly shine throughout the home. Coffered ceiling detail, striking iron work, handcrafted built-in natural-wood cabinetry, original candelabra wall sconces, and the faux fireplace all contribute to the essence of 225 E 56th. Amongst the old world charm apparent around every corner, modern living and functionality have been thoughtfully blended into the identity of the home. Over $100,000 in recent upgrades and improvements have been performed. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and reconfigured with new custom cabinetry, stainless steel Wolf appliances, butcher-block countertops, and a sunken farmhouse sink. The main bathroom has undergone a total overhaul, boasting designer terracotta flooring, custom tile-work, new shower & tub, and upgraded copper plumbing. The second bathroom was recently added onto the home and tastefully executed. 4 mini-split AC units have recently been installed, one in each of the 3 bedrooms, and one in the living room. The home's original vintage windows have been professionally restored with new wood, repainted, and reinstalled within the last year. Situated on a large 5,465 square foot lot, the backyard hosts a variety of mature fruit trees, covered patio, and alley access ideal for an ADU. Conveniently located just minutes away from the library, park, Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, and both 91 & 710 freeways.
