About This Home

Welcome to Esser House!
This stunning Spanish Colonial Revival property is truly irreplaceable.
Meticulously restored to its original design and beauty, 102 Bonito Ave/ 1001 E 1st St. was
built by William Esser the famous 18th century Long Beach Builder. The
owners have not merely restored it, but meticulously revived every
intricate detail to mirror the craftsmanship and soul of its original
design. From each carefully chosen material to every delicate feature, it
stands as a tribute to its historic beauty, inviting us to step back into the
grace of its first creation.
The beauty of this building will bring you back to a bring and so will the
property taxes. Through it's redesign it has received a historic Mills Act
Designation which drops the property taxes down to $5000 annually.
Each unit showcases elegant architectural details, including beautiful
hardwood floors, classic fixtures, built-in mantles, arches, wrought iron,
and tile accents. The owner’s unit boasts 2 large bedrooms and 2
bathrooms, one with a Jacuzzi steam spa, along with a private balcony.
The second unit is a generous 3-bedroom, 2-bath apartment with a
private patio. All units offer eat-in kitchens, separate dining and living
rooms, and in-unit laundry facilities.
The property provides ample parking with 3 garages and 3 additional
spaces on the apron, along with garage storage. There is also a
separate bonus space that could serve as an office or additional
storage. The location is an easy walk to Downtown Long Beach, with its
restaurants, shops, and the beach.
The Esser House is a Long Beach Historic Landmark and is protected
under the Mills Act, offering substantial tax savings. It represents a rare
opportunity to own a piece of Long Beach history. OM in supplements.
