100-year-old home still standing in Long Beach

Tucked away in Long Beach, the one-of-a-kind home is something you won't find anywhere else.

Cmon there are alot of old houses in LA built in the 1920s. I used to live in one.

My 1931 Spanish style house in San Diego has the milk door with a dial where you can indicate how many quarts you want, the upper part of the cooler, a compost bucket chute in the kitchen counter, a speakeasy window in the front door, mail slot into the breakfast room, a medicine cabinet over the kitchen sink, and lots of built-in cabinets. The home you show has more of the cool vintage features than most in really good condition; sadly, I see real estate videos for similar houses all over L.A. that have been flipped after having all of the character ripped out or painted over with grey. Most Craftsman homes will easily meet your 100 year old mark. The U.S. has houses going back to the 1600s in New York, Massachusetts, etc. if you really want to be amazed. I do enjoy seeing younger people get excited about house features my parents grew up with. There is a whole community of old house restoration folks on Youtube

I love original homes and so glad that previous owners keep them as they were.

I've never seen the rolling pin holder nor a refrigerator like that. I like the milk delivery window. What a fun house!

Our home was built in 1890 in Downtown Los Angeles and taken by eminent domain to make way for the future of luxury condos in the 2000’s.
Bunker Hill neighborhood was wiped out in 2004.
Our home was 113 years old

Please never let the property brothers get ahold of this gem 🙏🏼

[TimHunold]

My brother has a nearly identical home in Long Beach. These homes tend to be in the WORST streets.

Wait built in 1928? Doesn’t that make the home 96 years old? Thats not 100 years old yet 😂

[JoseTorres-vpsk]

Hold my beer...my house in Lansing, MI was built in 1886 and it's still going strong! They really don't built them like they used to.

[LABusDiaries]

My Parents home in Pasadena was built in 1927, almost 100 years old, but sadly doesn't have any of its original charm anymore. Mom remolded it just 3 years ago

My grandmother lived in that exact style home in Long Beach. I’m 64.

[Dbodell]

If a home is well built it should last 100 years easily. Especially in Californias climate.

My LA house is 101, I was wondering what that outside “milk window” was. So cool!

“Land line” always cracks me up. You young folk. I once had my husband’s friend in like 2005 ask his son to call his mom that they had made it to our home okay (it was a long drive) using our house phone. He came running to his dad and said, “okay, but how do you use it?” His dad was confused. Went to see we had a rotary phone and he just laughed. We never realized kids dont know what those are! Yes, it still worked fine then and I still use it as my primary “land line.”

I have that same ironing board type in my apartment. My building was built in the 1930’s. I never use but I show it off when company comes over.
