Finding a brand-new home on a serene, tree-lined street in an established Southern California neighborhood feels nearly impossible. In pockets like Los Altos, where most residences date back to the 1940s, finding a complete ground-up rebuild is an absolute rarity.
If you have been researching living in Long Beach and exploring the local housing market, you already know that true new construction here is like finding a unicorn. Welcome to 2124 Rutgers Avenue—a custom-built modern farmhouse that redefines coastal luxury in Long Beach real estate.
Soaring Scale and Coastal Craftsmanship
The second you cross the threshold, the sheer volume of the main level makes an immediate impression. While standard homes in the area typically feature eight-foot ceilings, this floor plan boasts soaring 10-foot ceilings throughout. The extra height completely transforms the space, making the open-concept layout feel grand, airy, and flooded with natural light.
Spanning across the living areas are durable nine-inch white oak luxury vinyl floors. They deliver a high-end, wide-plank aesthetic while easily handling the daily wear-and-tear of kids, pets, and sandy feet coming home from the beach.
A Chef’s Dream Kitchen Built for Entertaining
The undisputed crown jewel of this home is the chef’s kitchen. Anchoring the room is an oversized island wrapped in stunning Taj Mahal quartz, which extends across the perimeter countertops and full-height backsplash.
Equipped with premium ZLINE appliances—including a professional-grade gas range, hidden custom hood, and microwave drawer—this space easily handles everything from quick weekday meals to weekend dinner parties. Adjacent bifold doors fold completely flat to connect the interior seamlessly to the private backyard, perfecting the Southern California indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
A Private Primary Suite and Modern Systems
Tucked quietly at the rear of the property, the primary suite serves as a true sanctuary. It accommodates a California King bed comfortably and overlooks greenery in the backyard. The primary bath offers a spa-inspired escape with a freestanding soaking tub, frameless glass walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a fully outfitted custom closet system.
Beyond the aesthetic details, this property offers unmatched peace of mind. Taken completely down to the dirt, the house features brand-new plumbing, updated electrical, a high-efficiency HVAC system, a new roof, energy-efficient windows, and a completely replaced sewer line.
Unbeatable Convenience in the Heart of Los Altos
Location is everything when considering living in Long Beach. Situated dead-center in Los Altos, this home places you minutes from local hubs like Lazy Acres Natural Market, Sports Basement, and local dining favorites like Kihon Sushi. With quick access to the Traffic Circle, the 405 freeway, and Long Beach Airport, commuting and traveling are effortless.
