Coldwell Banker Commercial BLAIR is pleased to present 240 Long Beach Blvd
for both Sale and Lease. Formerly known as Acres of Books, this site is a brand
new, two-building structure with a combined total of 9,513 SF. Acres of Books
was a beloved bookstore that operated at this location from 1960 until 2008,
becoming a cherished landmark in the Long Beach community. Known for its vast
collection of books across various genres, it became a haven for bibliophiles and
a significant part of Long Beach’s cultural history. The newly renovated buildings
feature concrete floors, high ceilings, skylights, and a charming exterior brick
facade. The spacious storefronts and shared courtyard enhance the property’s
inviting ambiance, making it perfect for creative retail or office spaces. With its rich
history and unique architectural details, the property stands as a testament to the
city’s heritage while offering modern amenities for contemporary use.
Additional amenities include on-site parking (approximately 64 spaces) available
through the neighboring Onni property at a monthly fee. There is also a monthly
HOA fee for property upkeep and maintenance. The location is ideally situated
across from the Metro, with close proximity to several new residential and mixed
use development projects, making it a prime spot for business and community
engagement.
This is a rare opportunity to lease or purchase a property that blends Long Beach’s
historical charm with modern functionality in a growing and vibrant area
