A neighborhood known for its peace suburban vibe
A quiet oasis in the city, Park Estates is known for its high-end suburban feel. With spacious yards and well-rated public schools, it's a peaceful neighborhood of Long Beach. It offers a blend of residential tranquility and proximity to bustling city retail. "It really offers the best of both worlds," says local Realtor Shannon Paul, who works with Zaia Estates and has over five years of experience in the area. "You get this quaint, intensely suburban enclave with beautiful custom homes and tree-lined streets — which I know everyone says about every neighborhood, but these are serious trees — and at the same time, as soon as you leave the neighborhood, there's a ton of great shopping and dining.”
