About This Home

As of May 2017

Rising above the bluffs along Ocean Boulevard in the Belmont Heights neighborhood of Long Beach sits the famed mid-century condominium tower, The Galaxy. The iconic architectural towers boast units with breathtaking panoramic ocean, coastline, city and mountain views. Each home has been uniquely designed to have no shared walls and 20" between floors allowing for the utmost in privacy. This highly desirable south-east facing unit allows for the building's coolest summer day. Inside you will find walls of glass that open up to allow the abundant natural light to showcase the rich hardwood floors, wet-bar, and crown molding. The radiant heat throughout all ceilings deliver pleasant comfort when not enjoying ocean breezes across the tree-tops. With an opportunity to add your personal style to this unit, this is a rare opportunity in a building that is just seconds from the beaches, restaurants, entertainment and all that this lively city offers.
