Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1981 (43 years old) and features original kitchen cabinetry and a dated overall aesthetic. While it has been maintained with some updates like vinyl flooring and double-paned windows, the core systems and finishes are over 20 years old and require modernization.
The property is ideally situated in the vibrant North Park area, offering excellent walkability to Balboa Park, Morley Field, and a variety of local shops and restaurants.
This rare top-floor unit features only one common wall and elevator access, providing enhanced privacy and a quieter living environment compared to other units in the complex.
Residents benefit from a wide range of on-site facilities including security gated parking, a gym, library, game room, and additional storage, which are significant value-adds at this price point.
