53 Bennett Ave Long Beach, CA 90803

Traditional-style duplex in the heart of coveted Belmont Shore, just across from the beach and within walking distance of the sand, vibrant 2nd Street shopping, restaurants, and cafés. The front residence, 53 Bennett, offers approximately 825 square feet with two bedrooms, one bathroom, a separate kitchen, timeless character, and thoughtful updates. The rear residence, 55 Bennett, features approximately 650 square feet with one spacious bedroom, one bathroom, and a large kitchen with a dedicated dining area. Both units have been refreshed with new interior and exterior paint, modern laminate flooring, updated lighting, and new windows. The property also includes two single-car garages, approximately two to three additional rear parking spaces, and a separate laundry room attached to the garage. A private, secured courtyard provides an inviting outdoor space where residents can relax, entertain, enjoy weekend barbecues, or spend time with their pets. The property may also offer significant upside potential for an ADU or third unit above the garages, possibly incorporating a private deck and additional tandem parking while preserving much of the courtyard. Subject to city and planning approval, the property could potentially accommodate three residential units and up to six parking spaces. Buyers are encouraged to independently verify all development possibilities. An excellent opportunity for an investor or owner-occupant looking to enjoy the Belmont Shore lifestyle while receiving rental income from the second unit. Live just moments from the sand, ocean breezes, and everything 2nd Street has to offer. Beach-close living at its finest!
