Offering 1,355 sq. ft., 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, this exceptional home is wrapped in expansive corner windows that capture extraordinary natural light and panoramic views in three directions. The ever-changing panorama extends from the lush greenery of Balboa Park across San Diego Bay to the Downtown skyline and Coronado Bridge, with dramatic sunsets over Point Loma.

The views are not limited to the living spaces—they are enjoyed from the kitchen, both bedrooms and even the bathrooms. The living and dining areas open seamlessly to a covered terrace, creating a private outdoor extension of the home. It is an ideal setting for morning coffee, sunset cocktails or effortless entertaining against a backdrop of bay sunsets, illuminated city lights and aircraft quietly approaching San Diego International Airport. Inside, the residence has been thoughtfully refreshed for a sophisticated, move-in-ready experience. Brand-new premium flooring offers the refined appearance of light wood with commercial-grade durability, while both bedrooms feature brand-new carpeting.

The desirable split-bedroom floor plan provides excellent privacy, and the primary bath features dual vanities and a walk-in shower. An in-unit washer and dryer add convenience. The location within Aria is equally impressive.

The result is a uniquely balanced lifestyle: the city's culture, dining, entertainment, nature and connectivity are remarkably close, yet the energy and congestion of the city remain outside your door.
