Pros & Cons

Pros

Great Schools: Elementary School: Bird Rock Elementary School (10/10).
Exceptional Location & Walkability: Situated in the heart of Crown Point, Pacific Beach, the property is just one block from the Bay (sand, bike path) and two blocks from a vibrant commercial hub, offering unparalleled walkability and access to the quintessential beach lifestyle.
Strong Income Potential: The complex explicitly allows short-term rentals, presenting a significant opportunity for investors to generate substantial income, with projections available.
Extensive Modern Renovation: Recently undergone over $150,000 in luxury remodels, including new flooring, quartz countertops, real wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and fresh paint, ensuring a move-in ready and contemporary living experience.
Spacious Single-Level Layout with Ample Outdoor Space: An incredibly rare, nearly 2,000 square foot single-level condo featuring a generous floor plan with dedicated living areas and five private outdoor spaces totaling approximately 400 square feet, ideal for entertaining and enjoying the climate.
Luxurious Primary Suite & Practical Amenities: The large primary bedroom boasts a walk-in closet, a retreat space with a two-way fireplace, an attached balcony, and an elegant bathroom with a soaking tub and separate shower. Additional conveniences include a dedicated laundry room, ample storage, and a private 1-car garage with an extra off-street parking spot.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1945, other record living area = 1851.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: Despite the temperate beach climate, the property description does not mention a central cooling system, which could be a drawback for some buyers, especially during warmer periods or for those accustomed to AC.
Condo Living Limitations: As a condominium, the property entails shared walls and adherence to HOA rules, which may include restrictions or potential for noise from neighbors, limiting the sense of privacy or autonomy compared to a detached home.
Limited Premium Views: While offering 'City Lights' views and 'sunsets over the neighborhood' from outdoor spaces, the property does not explicitly highlight direct, panoramic ocean or bay views from within the unit, which some buyers might expect given its prime coastal proximity and price point.
