Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 2008 (16 years old), falls within the 'good' category's age range. It is described as 'turnkey' and 'spruced up recently,' indicating it's move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The kitchen features modern dark cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances (though some appliances are black/white, creating a slight mismatch). Flooring is a mix of tile and dark wood, both appearing well-maintained. While not extensively renovated to cutting-edge standards, all components appear functional and in good condition, consistent with a well-maintained property of its age.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Downtown Location: Situated in the highly desirable 92101 Downtown San Diego area, just two blocks from the water, offering exceptional walkability to amenities and attractions.
Luxury Building Amenities: Residents benefit from a full suite of prestigious Sapphire Towers amenities including concierge, 24-hour security, heated pool, jacuzzi, fitness center, sauna, and club room.
Expansive Private Balcony: Features a huge private balcony, nearly as large as the interior living space, providing significant outdoor enjoyment and entertainment potential.
Turnkey & Modern Conveniences: The unit is turnkey, recently spruced up, includes in-unit laundry, and an electric car charger, offering modern comfort and move-in readiness.
Exclusivity and Privacy: Sapphire Towers boasts a limited number of residences (97 units), fostering a more private and exclusive living experience compared to larger towers.
Cons
Substantial Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $1,472.87 is considerably high, adding a significant recurring cost to ownership.
Compact Living Space: With only 505 square feet and one bedroom, the unit offers limited living space, potentially restricting its appeal to a niche market of single occupants or couples.
Recent Price Adjustment: A recent price reduction from $404,000 to $396,000 may suggest initial overpricing or a need to attract more buyer interest.
