About this home

This stunning top-floor 2 bed, 2 bath condo is a rare find in the heart of East Village. Boasting 1,077 sq ft of light-filled space, it features sleek quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinets, and high-end Iotty smart switches and plugs throughout. Freshly painted and move-in ready, with plush carpet in the bedrooms and engineered hardwood floors in the living areas. Step out to two private outdoor spaces—a balcony off the living room and a private rooftop deck with skyline views that scream "Downtown lifestyle." Plus, enjoy side-by-side parking (not tandem!) and two massive storage units in the garage—an East Village unicorn. This location puts you steps from Petco Park, Gaslamp nightlife, the Rady Shell, Trolley access, and the city’s best food and coffee spots. Whether you're catching a Padres game, heading to the marina, or working remotely from your deck, this home delivers on convenience, comfort, and equity-building potential. VA buyers, savvy investors, and urban dwellers—this is your shot to own big in the center of it all... without overpaying for interest.
