About This Home

As of May 2022

Live in the perfect balance of city life and ocean breezes in the most iconic highrise in the city! Villa Riviera, situated on the sand at the western edge of Alamitos Beach, is a beautiful 1920's French Gothic building listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom unit on the 10th floor overlooks city lights and the picturesque skyline of downtown Long Beach from bedroom, bathroom and living room windows. Original features include Mahogany interior doors, French hand-blown glass windows, and nostalgic tile flooring and wainscoting in the bathroom. Recently modernized features include granite flooring and countertops in the kitchen, Viking stove with range hood, newer kitchen cabinets and the addition of a dishwasher and garbage disposal system. Residents enjoy sunshine and unobstructed ocean views from an expansive sun deck complete with barbecues, lounge chairs, dining tables, a fire pit and shuffleboard court. Other community amenities include a laundry room, secure parcel and bike storage room, ballroom for hosting social events and both guarded and key fob-only building access. Another perk of ownership is the all-inclusive nature of the association dues, which encompasses ALL utility costs, and significantly reduced property taxes due to the protections of the Mills Act. For an additional fee, and on a space-available basis, extra storage is available and there are on-site and adjacent public parking options available. Enjoy eclectic urban coastal living in this prime location just a quick stroll away from many restaurants, wine bars and coffee houses, Shoreline Village, the Aquarium of the Pacific, and the Art Walk at the East Village Arts District. FHA and VA-approved.
