This prime location on a mature tree-lined street in one of the most desirable pockets of Lakewood makes this classic 3-bed, single-story Ranch an inviting opportunity for the future.
The home welcomes you with a formal dining room, original hardwood floors, and plenty of natural light throughout. The detached 2-car garage and long driveway provide ample parking and even ADU potential (buyer to verify local regulations).

Whether you're a first-time buyer with a vision, a savvy investor, or a contractor looking for your next project, this home presents a solid canvas with great bones in a high-demand area.
But what truly sets this property apart is its location: you can enjoy walkability and quick access to Mayfair Park, Lakewood Mall, Heartwell Golf Course and more local hotspots.

Additional highlights include:
* Central location in a quiet, established neighborhood
* Plenty of upside potential with room to renovate or expand
* Just minutes away from Long Beach Airport, LBCC and some of the best restaurants in the area
* Mature trees and quiet suburban charm
This is a chance to own in an ideal location at an entry point that leaves room for customization. With the right updates, this property could easily become the crown jewel of the block. Sold as-is, this is your chance to build sweat equity and create something special in Lakewood Village.
