550 Orange Ave

Genesis Long Beach is a low-rise, garden-style condominium community completed in 1985 and organized as multiple connected buildings around landscaped courtyards. Mostly single-story walk-up construction and occasional second-floor units create a compact campus rather than a single tower. Residences are primarily one- and two-bedroom condominium layouts with features commonly found in mid‑1980s complexes that have been frequently updated: vaulted or high ceilings, recessed lighting, crown molding, granite or quartz counters, built‑in cabinetry, and private balconies or patios. Interior conveniences reported across units include in‑unit laundry hookups or stacked washer/dryer closets, walk‑in closets, gas fireplaces in some homes, and a mix of laminate, tile, and original hardwood flooring. Shared facilities emphasize outdoor leisure and community gathering — a swimming pool and spa, barbecue areas, a clubhouse/recreation room, and gated access for added security. Parking options vary with assigned subterranean or surface stalls and occasional storage lockers; guest parking is provided. The landscape and common corridors are maintained with exterior lighting and rain gutters, and the complex allows pets under HOA rules. Located in the North Alamitos Beach / downtown Long Beach corridor, the community offers short walks to 4th Street retail, dining, parks, and the shoreline, delivering a compact, amenity‑centered condo lifestyle suited to commuters and coastal urban living.
