With its ground floor entrance passing under the half-arch of a handsomely-tiled flying staircase, this Long Beach courtyard apartment ingeniously provides both a welcome to visitors and a sense of privacy to its occupants. Delicate wrought iron grillwork, a projecting upper floor carried on corbels, and parabolic windows ringed by tile accents further distinguish its Andalusian-inspired design dating from the late Twenties.
