1911 Bungalow • Extensive Renovation • 2 Bedrooms / 2 Bathrooms • East Village Arts District • Downtown Long Beach • Near Alamitos Beach Located at 420 Olive Ave in Long Beach, this beautifully revived 1911 bungalow blends the character of a classic Long Beach home with the modern systems and finishes buyers want today. Offering approximately 1,000 sq ft with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the home was taken down to the studs and thoughtfully reimagined from top to bottom. The open-concept living space flows into a custom kitchen with quartz countertops, center island with seating, new cabinetry, and modern finishes, creating a comfortable gathering space for everyday living and entertaining. Seamless flooring, new drywall, doors, trim, baseboards, interior and exterior paint, double-pane windows, and updated fixtures give the home a clean, cohesive feel while preserving its bungalow character. Both bathrooms have been completely renovated, including the addition of a second bathroom, adding functionality rarely found in homes of this era. Behind the finishes is an extensive list of major improvements, including a complete electrical re-wire with upgraded electrical panel, full-house re-pipe, updated drains and plumbing fixtures, ductless mini-split heating and air conditioning, new water heater, and double-pane windows. This is much more than a cosmetic remodel—the major systems have been thoughtfully addressed as part of the renovation. The location completes the package. Situated in the East Village Arts District of Downtown Long Beach and just over a half a mile from Alamitos Beach, the home is near the shoreline bike path, restaurants, coffee shops, local boutiques, galleries, Shoreline Village, The Pike Outlets, and Downtown Long Beach entertainment. A rare opportunity to own a fully re-imagined 1911 Long Beach bungalow with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, modern systems, historic character, and coastal Downtown Long Beach living.
