Welcome to 1430 Temple Avenue—a captivating 1920 Long Beach bungalow where historic character meets modern comfort. Filled with iconic Craftsman-era charm, this thoughtfully updated home combines the warmth and personality of a classic bungalow with the upgrades today’s buyers want. The remodeled kitchen is a true showstopper, featuring soft-close cabinetry, custom butcher-block countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, a utility sink, and stylish modern finishes. The renovated bathroom offers a porcelain tub with beautiful white tile and striking black accents. New laminate and tile flooring throughout creates a fresh, cohesive feel. The converted one-car garage adds an incredible bonus space with a washer and dryer, built-in bar setup, and ready-to-use wiring for TV and music—perfect for a media lounge, game room, home gym, or ultimate hangout spot. Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. The large wooden deck offers plenty of room for multiple seating areas, outdoor dining, weekend barbecues, and relaxed evenings with friends. The enclosed front yard provides added privacy and valuable space for play, lounging, or letting pets roam. Out back, the wonderfully secluded yard creates a peaceful escape, complete with a mature orange tree and a spacious shed with electricity. Major improvements include ductless heating and air conditioning, copper plumbing throughout, a new roof, and sprinkler systems in both the front and back yards. A three-car driveway provides generous off-street parking. Located near the iconic Joe Jost’s and within walking distance of coffee shops, outdoor entertainment, and neighborhood favorites, this miraculous home offers an irresistible blend of history, style, privacy, and indoor-outdoor living. This isn’t just another home—it’s a timeless Long Beach bungalow made for gathering, relaxing, and creating lasting memories.
