About this home

We found 3 Cons,5 Pros. Rank: price - $660.0K(32th), sqft - 1046(43th), beds - 2(50th), baths - 2(50th).

Units in this building rarely come on the market so this one is not to be missed. Located just 10 minutes from San Diego International Airport, less than 10 minutes to downtown, and walking distance to restaurants, grocery stores, shopping hubs, nightlife, Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo, this unit is located in one of the most central locations in the city. With 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this corner unit condo is full of natural light from both the north and east sides. You'll find French doors that open up from the dining room and primary bedroom leading to two separate balconies, and another set of French doors in the second bedroom with a juliet balcony facing east. The main living area is spacious and open with plenty of room for a living/TV room and possible work from home space. With in-unit laundry, two gated parking spaces (not tandem) and a storage locker, this is one of the most desirable communities in Hillcrest.

Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1982, this condo is well-maintained but shows significant signs of its age. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, dated white tiled countertops, and a mix of older white and one newer stainless steel appliance, along with a dated fluorescent ceiling light. Bathrooms have gold-framed shower doors and older tile work. Throughout the unit, popcorn ceilings, dated light fixtures (like the brass chandelier), and a mirrored wet bar reinforce the 80s/90s aesthetic. While clean and functional, the property requires minor updates to modernize the kitchen and bathrooms, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Walkability: Exceptional central location in Hillcrest, offering walking distance to numerous restaurants, grocery stores, shopping hubs, nightlife, Balboa Park, and the San Diego Zoo, with quick access to downtown and the airport.
Exclusivity & Desirable Community: Units in this building rarely come on the market, indicating high demand and a sought-after address within one of Hillcrest's most desirable communities.
Abundant Natural Light & Corner Unit: As a corner unit, the condo benefits from ample natural light streaming in from both the north and east sides, creating a bright and inviting living space.
Multiple Balconies & Outdoor Space: Features two separate balconies accessible via French doors from the dining room and primary bedroom, plus a Juliet balcony in the second bedroom, providing desirable private outdoor areas.
Convenient Amenities: Includes highly desirable amenities such as in-unit laundry, two non-tandem gated parking spaces, and a dedicated storage locker, enhancing convenience and value for condo living.

Cons

Building Age: Built in 1982, the building is over 40 years old, which may imply potential for older systems, common area wear, or the need for future special assessments if not recently updated.
High Association Fee: The monthly association fee of $580.58 is relatively high for a 2-bedroom condo, adding a significant recurring cost to homeownership.
Lack of Interior Renovation Details: The description does not mention any recent interior renovations or updates to key areas like the kitchen or bathrooms, suggesting these may be original or dated and could require buyer investment.
