About This Home

As of January 2023

Enjoy this professionally designed beach home which is located in the wonderful quiet enclave of Bridgeport. No expense has been spared in completely remodeling this 2-bedroom plus den single story. Beautiful custom white cabinets are featured in the living room, kitchen and two baths with counters accented by luxurious quartz counter tops. Sparkling backsplash in the kitchen adds to the beauty of this room. A desk area has been added to the kitchen, again, with tastefully designed custom cabinetry. Stainless steel appliances include a French door refrigerator, 5 burner electric stove top, an oven, microwave and pantry. Vaulted ceilings in the living, dining areas and bedrooms give this home a large and airy feel. The living room opens to the private courtyard and features a stoned facade fireplace. The master suite includes an en-suite bath with a spacious walk-in shower and walk-in closet. The secondary bedroom is a spacious room with vaulted ceilings and a large wall closet. The cozy den is perfect for a sitting area or office and could function as a third bedroom. The Kitchen, bedrooms and den have high-quality ceiling fans. Some windows have Plantation shutters others have decorative valances. Stained glass windows with beachy scenes are installed throughout this home. The beachy motif is carried through the home including luxury vinyl flooring. Using the term "charming" only begins to describe this wonderful property. The Bridgeport homes won an award in the 1960's for bringing the outdoors in thru the use of courtyards and gardens. These homes are as charming and well sought after now as they were when they were first built. Bridgeport offers all the benefits of beach living without the hassles, single family homes, wide streets and alleys and unlimited parking. Only two entrances into this community making for very private and quiet environment. Stroll to Main St and the sand and enjoy this wonderful city. Los Alamitos schools are award winning schools. Three major freeways only a five-minute drive. This is a turn-key home and may be purchased with most of the furniture.
