Property is move-in ready.
Built in 2004 (20 years old), the property is well-maintained and move-in ready. While the kitchen cabinetry and white appliances are dated, they remain functional. The unit features updated flooring and central HVAC, meeting the criteria for a 10-20 year old functional home.
The top-floor location combined with rare vaulted ceilings and expansive walls of windows creates an airy, sun-drenched atmosphere that significantly enhances the perceived space of this studio.
Situated in the highly desirable Little Italy/Downtown area, the property offers exceptional walkability to world-class dining, the waterfront, and major shopping hubs.
The Palermo community provides high-end amenities including a pool, spa, fitness center, and clubhouse, offering a luxury lifestyle experience and added value for residents.
The monthly association fee of $700 is relatively high for a studio unit, which may impact the overall affordability and monthly budget for potential buyers.
With only 555 square feet of studio space, the property offers a limited footprint and lacks a private bedroom, which may restrict its appeal to a specific niche of single occupants or investors.
Perched on the top floor of the sought-after Palermo community, this stunning studio offers a rare combination of soaring vaulted ceilings and sun-drenched interiors that set it apart from anything else at this price point. Walls of windows flood the open-concept layout with natural light throughout the day, creating an airy, expansive feel that far exceeds the typical studio experience. The thoughtfully designed interior features a well-appointed kitchen with generous cabinetry and counter space, in-unit washer and dryer for everyday convenience, and central air conditioning to keep you comfortable year-round. Every detail has been carefully maintained, making this a true move-in-ready opportunity. Step outside and you're immediately immersed in one of San Diego's most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods. Little Italy's renowned restaurant row, the Downtown core, world-class shopping, and the sparkling waterfront are all just minutes away — whether you're on foot, bike, or a quick drive. Back home, Palermo's resort-caliber amenities rival those of a luxury hotel: a sparkling pool and spa, state-of-the-art fitness center, elegant clubhouse, and al fresco BBQ areas perfect for entertaining. Secured entry and controlled access provide peace of mind in a community that truly feels like a retreat from the city — without ever being far from it. Opportunities like this — top floor, vaulted ceilings, premium location — don't come around often
