Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Downtown Location: Situated atop Cortez Hill, offering excellent access to major freeways, Balboa Park, Gaslamp Quarter, Little Italy, and Petco Park, enhancing lifestyle and convenience.
Spacious & Unique 1-Bedroom Layout: An 'oversized' 1-bedroom unit (865 sqft) with a unique floor plan and only a few units per floor, providing a sense of exclusivity and generous living space.
Private Balcony with City Views: Features a huge private balcony offering desirable city views, adding significant outdoor living space and aesthetic appeal.
Modern Interior & Ample Storage: Boasts contemporary cement ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows for abundant natural light, a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite, plus a big walk-in closet and two additional storage units.
Bonus Half-Bath: The inclusion of a 1.5-bathroom configuration (full bath + half bath) is a significant advantage for a 1-bedroom unit, offering added convenience for residents and guests.
Cons
High Monthly Association Fees: The $984.00 monthly association fee is considerably high for a 1-bedroom condominium, potentially deterring budget-conscious buyers.
Limited Bedroom Count: As a 1-bedroom unit, its market appeal is restricted primarily to single occupants or couples, limiting the pool of potential buyers compared to properties with more bedrooms.
Recent Price Adjustment: A recent price reduction from the original listing price may indicate a perceived overvaluation or slower market interest, potentially raising questions for prospective buyers.
