If you said you were heading to 2nd St in Long Beach most people would assume you are referring to the quintessential area of Belmont Shore where the street is lined with wonderful restaurants and local businesses. While this might be the most widely known area of 2nd St this lovely street runs through Belmont Heights and offers wide streets, with great condo options and you are still only blocks from the Ocean.
Located just barely west of the Bluff Park neighborhood, the condo development of La Contessa is located in Belmont Heights. It occupies a prime location on the north side of the street which means if you have one of the front units then you have the opportunity to enjoy a view towards the Pacific Ocean. Part of this building’s unmistakable charm are the large, sweeping balconies that are further complemented by unique scalloped architectural feature along the top of the building. There is no way you could mistake this building for anything other than it’s 1965 build date.
Find out More about La Contessa Condos
To help you decide if this is the right condo for you to call home we invite you to find out more about the key features and floorplans:
- Heating and Cooling – For heating you will have radiant heat which is electric based and can result in higher electrical bills. There is no air conditioning in these condos so you will need to capitalize on the cool ocean breeze by opening your balcony doors.
- Laundry – You will enjoy the benefit of a stackable inside laundry. With a 1960’s built building this is a rare find.
- Parking – Parking is secured parking and we have seen 1 bedroom condos come with 1 parking space and the 2 bedroom units come with 2 parking spaces. An added benefit of the secured parking is you will also find storage areas above the parking spots. Always check your HOA and Title documents to ensure that your specific unit does have parking spaces assigned.
- Balcony – The balconies here are just big enough to fit a couple of smaller chairs. As far as balconies go they are on the more optimized sided but still give you an opportunity to enjoy the great weather.
Getting to your particular condo here is quite enjoyable. The center of the building features an open quad and hallways which means no worrying about long travels down dark areas. With 18 condos available at La Contessa you will find both 1 and 2 bedroom condos as options. Across the floor plans you will find common features such as a walk-in closet and well portioned room sizes.
- 1 Bedroom, 1 bathroom – 807 sq ft+ – Finding a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom condo that is nearly the size of a 2 bedroom is a rare find but it is possible here.
- 2 bedrooms, 1.75 bathrooms – 1059 sq ft+ – The 2 bedroom condos are the most prevalent floor plans available at La Contessa. While there are a number of condos at the 1,059 sq ft size there are also larger units over 1,200 sq ft.
