Belmont Heights is one of the most popular neighborhoods in Long Beach when looking for older historic homes that date back to the early part of the century. Belmont Heights has a nice mixture of various architectural styles that include Spanish, Mid-Century, Cape Cod and Ranch style homes. One of the most popular styles is in the Bungalow which can be found all over Belmont Heights neighborhood. Within the Belmont Heights area are two neighborhoods that have a high concentration of Bungalow style homes.
The first neighborhood is the Bluff Park community. This is a small little residential neighborhood that spans from Broadway down to the beach on Ocean Blvd. If you are looking for the best of the best then this is where you start your search. The neighborhood tends to be more expensive than other areas of Belmont Heights and a quick drive through the neighborhood you will see why. The floor plans are very large and spacious with beautiful two story Bungalows located on large oversized lots. Living in Bluff Park allows for quick and easy access to the beach and just minutes to the downtown Long Beach area.
The other area of Belmont Heights that is worth a look is the Bluff Heights area. Similar to the Bluff Heights neighborhood these homes relocated near the beach from Broadway and 3rd street. The beach is approximately a 4 to 7 block radius depending on where you live with beautiful older Bungalow style homes. These tend to be a little more affordable with small two bedroom Bungalow style homes that can start in the low $700,000 range. It's important to note when looking for a historic property to find out if it's covered under the "Mills Act." If the property has already been approved then you save a large amount on your annual taxes. This can be a considerable savings as taxes are normally more than 1% of the purchase price in California.
