Beautifully maintained and updated 3 bed/2 bath home situated in a highly sought after neighborhood within the city of Cerritos. Built by an architect and developer of many distinctive Orange County homes from the 1960's onward; quality of construction and well designed spaces were their signature. A spacious open plan living/dining room flows out to the expansive rear yard and patio. The renovated kitchen is adjacent- a well organized workspace that is provided with plentiful natural light from the large window and sliding door. A trellis enriches the view and partially shades the home and rear patio seating from the afternoon sun. The home's floor plan is a thoughtful distribution of space- placing all three bedrooms off a central hallway with a guest bath. The primary bedroom with its own en-suite bath faces the private rear yard. Some of the recent updates include fresh paint, new flooring throughout, and double pane windows. A rare opportunity in one of the city's most desirable locations- just a few blocks from the Los Cerritos Center, within a highly rated school district, and in close proximity to many excellent restaurants and amenities.
