About this property
On acreage that had previously been home to pasture and training facilities for his family's thoroughbred racehorses, architect Clifton Jones Jr. developed a tract of distinguished garden home duplexes. Named Cerritos Circle, its modernist post and beam designs were clearly influenced by the architect's studies at the USC School of Architecture and the formative Case Study house program. Offered here is the model D plan, with both residences featuring dramatic double-height living/dining areas, a sculptural spiral staircase, floor to ceiling walls of glass at east and west facings, private garages, and spacious and private rear patio + yard areas. As side by side units, each has the feeling of being its own single family home. They were designed in such a way that owners could live in one and rent out the other, with privacy between units having been a primary consideration in the design. Both feature 2 bedrooms / 2.5 baths, well organized open plan kitchens with original cabinetry, and spacious living/dining areas. Located in Long Beach's highly desired Los Cerritos/Virginia Country Club neighborhood: with tree lined streets, historic homes, excellent school district, adjacent Dominguez Gap Wetlands + nearby shopping, restaurants, and breweries of Bixby Knolls. Central location with easy freeway access for commutes to both Los Angeles and Orange County, and less than 1.5 miles from a metro station.
