Pros & Cons

Pros

Luxury 62+ Independent Living: Located in the exclusive Pacific Regent La Jolla, this community offers 24/7 concierge, security, a gourmet restaurant, extensive wellness facilities (pool, spa, fitness), and a vibrant activity calendar tailored for seniors.
Exceptional Views & Natural Light: The West-facing unit features a private balcony with panoramic city, coastal hills, and Pacific Ocean sunset views, complemented by an open layout and a wall of windows ensuring abundant natural light.
Turnkey & Modern Interior: Newly-updated and move-in ready, the unit boasts new quartz countertops, sinks, faucets, carpeting, fresh paint, real-wood flooring, central AC/heating, and an in-unit stackable washer/dryer.
Premier La Jolla Location: Situated in a highly desirable San Diego neighborhood, offering convenient access to UCSD medical campus, UTC shopping, the Blue trolley line, La Jolla beaches, and major freeways (I-805, I-5).
Comprehensive Services & Amenities: The HOA covers weekly housekeeping, resident/guest valet parking with EV charging, scheduled transportation, and all utilities (water, trash, high-speed internet, cable TV, landline phone service), providing a hassle-free lifestyle.

Cons

Substantial Monthly HOA Dues: The monthly association fee of $3,734 is exceptionally high, significantly impacting the overall cost of ownership and potentially limiting buyer affordability despite the extensive services included.
Age-Restricted Community: As a 62+ independent living community, the property's market appeal is restricted to a specific demographic, which can narrow the pool of potential buyers and affect resale dynamics.
Mandatory Dining Plan: The HOA dues include a minimum of 10 dining room meal credits per occupant, implying a mandatory dining plan that adds to the fixed monthly cost and may not suit all residents' culinary preferences or budgets.
