About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to Villa Mariposa, 2 bedroom and 2 bath with BONUS ROOM, a timeless Spanish-style residence nestled in the heart of Belmont Heights. This captivating 1920s-era home is a stunning example of period architecture, showcasing rich hardwood floors, graceful archways, and a built-in wood desk, built in cabinets with original teak wood that reflects the craftsmanship of the era. HVAC is new, Compressor is a month old and the blower is under a year.
Warm and inviting, every detail honors the home’s original charm while offering space and versatility for modern living. This home features original tiles in soft yellow, beautiful purple and the tiles are in pristine condition. The fireplace creates a beautiful fire element to stimulate conversation during the chilly months of winter in Long Beach California.

Just off the dining area, a bonus room awaits—ideal for a home office, playroom, guest space, or even a potential additional bedroom. The expansive lot offers abundant outdoor space with lush grassy front and rear yards—an increasingly rare find in this beloved coastal neighborhood. Imagine the possibilities for entertaining, gardening, or even adding a casita.

Fully Finished Garage, with a separate entrance, offering flexibility for creative or remote work setups. The detached garage is meticulously maintained, complementing the home's overall care and condition. Plus an electric charging station for electric vehicles in the finished garage.

Located just a short stroll to the vibrant shops, cafes, and restaurants of Belmont Shore, this home offers not only beauty and functionality, but also an exceptional lifestyle. Orange butterflies often flutter through the gardens of Villa Mariposa, adding to the enchanting, Mediterranean ambiance of this truly special property.
