About this home

A rare opportunity to live in a reimagined Edward Killingsworth residence. Set on an expansive 11,638 sq. ft. lot in La Marina Estates, this approximately 2,835 sq. ft. tri-level home pairs the vision of one of Southern California’s celebrated modernist architects with a thoughtful 2023 transformation by Interstices Architecture. The renovation respects the home’s architectural origins while introducing a refined, contemporary point of view. At its center is a beautifully reimagined kitchen appointed with Wolf ovens and cooktop, Sub-Zero refrigeration and quartz countertops, creating a space equally suited to everyday living and entertaining. The home’s multi-level design offers both openness and separation. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms occupy the lower level, while the upper level functions as a private retreat with its own kitchen, additional bedroom, bathroom and separate office. This flexible space lends itself beautifully to guest quarters, a work-from-home suite, media or game room, or extended living. Outside, the scale of the property becomes part of the experience. The generous grounds were enhanced during the 2023 renovation with a pool and spa, creating a private setting for entertaining, relaxing and enjoying the Southern California indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Architectural provenance, contemporary design and an unusually generous homesite come together in a residence that feels both significant and highly livable. For the tenant who appreciates architecture and design, 1340 Knoxville Road presents a truly distinctive opportunity in Long Beach.
