About This Home
As of September 2025The prettiest little starter home in N. Long Beach that also has some pretty cool hidden potential....why??? 1434 E 68th sits forward on its large lot with separate alley access behind it. With a two car garage, a covered patio and the home's large private yard many neighbors have already realized that they can add an ADU, a Junior ADU or simply expand their homes. Check with the city for details but who doesn't love having that potential? Speaking of potential, the home also has an additional permitted step down patio room (approx. 285 sf) that was enjoyed by its current owners as a huge 3rd primary bedroom "or" it could just be a bonus room. Freshly painted and featuring an updated full bath, dual pane windows throughout, a sunny garden window, convienient raised foundation, a detached 2 car garage with roll up door and a pretty covered patio for enjoying supper outside on a warm summer evening. Conveniently close to markets, Target and a variety of restaurants. A single family home at a condo price AND without HOA dues or rules, who doesn't love that!
