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.

Tucked on a quiet, tree-lined street in the McManus neighborhood of Culver City, sit these two generously sized bungalows on a single lot. Come explore the ultimate in options and flexibility, close to it all... Offered as-is, both units will be delivered vacant and ready to occupy, rent, renovate, or reimagine entirely. This 5,400 sf lot is zoned CCR2 and sits within a half-mile of both the Ivy and La Cienega/Jefferson stations, where state and local development incentives beyond current zoning may be worth exploring further. Buyer to verify all zoning, condition, and development potential with the City of Culver City and through their own inspections... Ownership has taken advantage of the property's flexibility, with it serving as home, office, studio, and rental over the years. Unique to the property are two separate driveways, one for each home with private access and garages. Two cozy front porches invite lounging beneath the property's mature trees and the generous outdoor space runs throughout the property. At the rear, a former carriage house has long served as an art studio and is ready for the next owner's vision!... 3414 Fay Avenue is close to it all. At the bottom of the block is a cul-de-sac that opens directly onto the bike path, a baseball field, and playground, with coffee shops, galleries, restaurants, and the buzzing Helms Bakery District along Washington just to the north. With mass transit and downtown Culver City just minutes away, this is easy to get to and a must see.

Two cottage houses on oversized lot - a 3 bedroom 2 bath with a seasonal rental CUP and an ADU 1 bedroom 1 bath with a full-time tenant on a lease. No cars permitted on this very special street in the flats! BEST location: an easy walk from the boat/harbor, and all the shops and restaurants and the golf course and playground the other direction, but not so close that you deal with tourist traffic. Eucalyptus dead-ends at its base into the Vons so groceries and supplies are literally steps away. The main house has just four brick steps up to front door, but you can take the breezeway to the back door and there's only 1 short step up and no stairs inside. Kitchen was redone in 2020 with quartz counters, new soft-close cabinetry and cooktop/oven/microwave. Primary suite bedroom with full bath ensuite has queen bed. Secondary bedroom has 2 twins with private Jack & Jill direct access into the hall bath. Third bedroom is spacious with queen bed. Hall bath has walkin shower, redone appx 2024. Living room has a queen sofabed with inflatable stowable mattress, so the main home sleeps 8 in beds. Whole 3/2 house plus 1/1 rewired with new main panels (separate) most of both houses are replumbed. 1/1 currently rented yearly 3/2 rented by AirBnB. Separate laundry room is part of 1BR house but not part of tenant's rental agreement. (Building area total is estimated.) Back patio shared by both units has a shed and picnic table and is possibly large enough to also park a golf cart via the alley.

Some homes simply have a feeling you can't manufacture, and 6724 De Celis is one of them. Set along a charming, Storybook-like tree-canopied street that feels like a step back in time, this enchanting Lake Balboa home is surrounded by grassy parkways, mature trees and beautifully kept homes showcasing the character of an earlier Los Angeles. For many years, this was the almost-forever home of a prolific artist, and it is easy to understand why. Natural light pours through windows on nearly every wall, illuminating beautiful hardwood floors and creating a warm, cheerful connection between indoors and out. The living and dining areas flow beautifully into an impressive family room addition with vaulted open-beam wood ceilings, a romantic stone fireplace and sliding doors to the backyard. Tucked within this wonderful space is a generous artist/craft retreat concealed behind accordion doors; leave your paints, projects, crafts or homework spread out, close the doors when guests arrive, and pick up right where you left off. The ultra-charming kitchen retains its delightful pale yellow and black tile, while a beautiful stained-glass window adds another touch of personality. Three spacious bedrooms offer generous closets and wonderful natural light. A full bath, convenient laundry room with side access and attached two-car garage complete the home. Outside, a brick-trimmed front porch is tucked behind a mature privacy hedge, while the backyard holds another surprise: an adorable freestanding mini-house with windows, door and roof—ready for storage, creative space, office, exercise room or a quiet getaway. And then there is Lake Balboa itself. In the middle of Los Angeles, this special neighborhood offers something increasingly rare - nature, green space and recreation. Nearby are Lake Balboa Park, Woodley Park, the Sepulveda Basin Wildlife Reserve, miles of walking and biking paths, dog park, farmers market, three public golf courses and Balboa Sports Center. Ventura Boulevard shopping and dining are minutes away, with convenient access to the 101 and 405. Enchanting, artistic, light-filled and wonderfully original—6724 De Celis is one of those special places that simply feels like home.
