Welcome to 3008󠃢󠂁󠂣󠃢󠂁󠂣󠃍󠂏󠃢󠂀󠂋󠃢󠂁󠂤󠃳󠂠󠂁󠂁 Karen Avenue, an exceptional Cliff May Rancho in Long Beachs iconic Rancho Estates neighborhood. Thoughtfully restored while respecting its mid-century modern roots, this home pairs authentic Cliff May architecture with a newly constructed heated pool, central AC, and permitted ADU plans. Behind a custom wood privacy wall, the home opens to a private courtyard centered around the heated pool, sitting deck, and in-ground gas fire pit, the indoor/outdoor lifestyle these Ranchos were designed around. Beyond the detached two-car garage, a second private yard offers additional outdoor space and future flexibility with permitted ADU plans already in hand. Inside, handcrafted birch cabinetry, polished concrete floors, original Mistlite glass panels, and strategically placed skylights create a warm, understated interior true to the home's era. Period-conscious fixtures carry throughout, while the recently reimagined primary en suite continues the same thoughtful palette and attention to detail. A recently added 120 square foot storage shed adds valuable space without compromising the garage or outdoor living areas. With a newly replaced furnace, central AC and meticulous care throughout, 3008 Karen is a beautifully preserved example of Cliff May's celebrated indoor-outdoor California architecture.
