More Insights
Built in 1989 (37 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1989, this property has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, making it feel virtually new. The kitchen features modern dark shaker cabinets, light quartz-like countertops, a stylish mosaic backsplash, and new stainless steel appliances (French door fridge, gas range, microwave, dishwasher). Both bathrooms are impeccably updated with modern vanities, lighted mirrors, contemporary tile work (subway tile and pebble floor in one shower, large format marble-look tile in the other), and modern fixtures. The entire home boasts consistent, modern wood-look tile flooring, fresh paint, and updated lighting/ceiling fans. The description confirms it's an 'updated home' and 'move-in ready,' further supported by the fully paid-off solar panels. All components appear new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Gated Community & Desirable Neighborhood: Located within a secure gated community in a good San Diego neighborhood (Encanto), offering enhanced safety and a pleasant living environment.
Significant Utility Savings: Features fully paid-off solar panels, resulting in lower utility costs and the owner receiving a monthly electricity credit, a major financial benefit.
Move-in Ready Condition: Described as an 'updated home' and 'move-in ready,' minimizing immediate renovation expenses and effort for the buyer.
Private Outdoor Space: Offers a 'nice backyard with extra side yard space,' providing valuable private outdoor living area, which is a premium for a condominium.
Excellent School Access: Proximity to highly-rated public schools, including Encanto Elementary (5/10) and Lincoln High School (4/10), making it attractive for families.
Cons
Condominium Ownership Limitations: As a condominium, it implies shared walls, potential noise from neighbors, and adherence to HOA rules and regulations, which may not suit all buyers seeking single-family home privacy.
Lack of Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which could be a drawback for buyers in San Diego who often prioritize scenic views.
Misleading Lot Size Information: The listed lot size of 114,697 sqft is highly unusual for a condominium and likely refers to the entire community's land, not the private usable space, potentially confusing buyers expecting a large individual lot.
