Adu / DUPLEX

Environ extensively renovated this four-unit property, featuring the addition of a new ADU, located in prime Belmont Heights. The project displays a perfect blend of modern design, functionality, and coastal living. Situated just one block from the beach and within walking distance of Belmont Shore’s vibrant retail and dining corridor, the property offers an exceptional location in one of Long Beach’s most desirable neighborhoods. 

The improvements include a comprehensive renovation of the existing multifamily structure, along with the ground-up construction of a two-story Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). The new ADU adds 2,400 square feet of living space, featuring 6-bedrooms and 4-bathrooms, significantly enhancing the property’s value and income potential. 

  • Existing structure ground floor: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, approx. 1,420 sq. ft.  

  • Existing structure first floor: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, approx. 1,398 sq. ft.  

  • ADU ground floor: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, approx. 1,200 sq. ft. 

  • ADU first floor: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, approx. 1,200 sq. ft 

Additionally, the property features six renovated, detached one-car garages, offering convenient parking and storage.  

Due to the sites close proximity to the ocean, Environ worked with the city of Long Beach to manage the Coastal Commission requirements required for developing in the coastal zone.
