A historic district walkable to the beach and shopping
“It’s the Beverly Hills of Long Beach, where all the nice real estate is,” says Realtor and President of Bluff Heights Neighborhood Association Stephen Sutton. Among Bluff Heights’ historical Craftsman architecture, children run around landscaped yards as year-round patio barbecues kick off. “Buyers like the neighborhood mostly because it’s residential. They usually have a backyard in a single-family residence and have kids,” Sutton says. However, Bluff Heights isn’t just about home life. Urban and walkable, the neighborhood’s retail center radiates a hip vibe from vintage clothing shops to a restored 1920s movie theater with screenings of “Night of the Living Dead.” Residents can get home without having to drive, and to top it all off, they can walk a few blocks to the beach too. “It’s really charming — very much what people think of when they think of Long Beach by the beach,” says Realtor Beatrix Whipple, who works with the Whipple Group and has over two decades of experience in the area. “It’s neighborhood-y with a lot of great retail and restaurants.”
Bluff Heights is a short distance from the warm sandy beaches and vast ocean views.

Shops and restaurants in Retro Row
A cultural epicenter, Bluff Heights features Retro Row, a shopping district on the north side of the neighborhood. Locals mill about one-of-a-kind local businesses and the Art Theatre, the oldest movie house in the city. The theatre’s Art Deco style makes it an iconic local landmark. As for shops, Casa De Luxe sells antiques and home décor. Casita Bookstore offers books written by diverse authors and events like author readings and Storytimes. The neighborhood also has a diverse range of cuisines. “La Parolaccia Osteria is very good,” Sutton says. The Italian restaurant’s ambiance stems from its wood burning oven and exposed brick details. “Another James Beard Award-winning restaurant is Gusto Bread. It’s very popular in the neighborhood,” Sutton says. For a mouth-watering treat, the artisanal Panadería specializes in baking with wild fermented sourdough culture and fresh corn masa. To pick up groceries for home-cooked meals, locals can stop by Ralphs.

Close to Bluff Park, the beach and more recreation

Residents of Bluff Heights can stroll down to Bluff Park’s walking paths for panoramic vistas of the ocean and from there, easily reach the city's namesake beach for a quick swim. The neighborhood is also right next to Bixby Park, known for its playground, dog park and skatepark. It also hosts regular events like a farmers market brimming with vendors, free yoga classes on the bluff and live music in the bandshell. “Miles of biking and running trails provide a lot of recreational access you wouldn’t have more inland,” Sutton says.
