Unit 7D
Offered at $749,000.
Premier Highrise on the Hillcrest/Bankers
Hill border.
2 Bedrooms and 2 Baths, 1,550 Square Feet with Sweeping Views
of the Harbor,Cityscape, Sunrises and Sunsets. Walk to Balboa
Park, Shopping, Dining, Entertainment, Minutes to Downtown and
Airport. Many Upgrades in a Complex Rich with Amenities.
***Special features of this Hillcrest pedigree
building include a very desirable location and a roof top social
and exercise space perfect for fireside cocktails, formal dinner
parties and a terrace with views from the South Bay to La Jolla--probably
the best fireworks watching in the county.
In addition, the complex boosts units with
floor to ceiling windows, a large laundry room suitable for
additional storage, a house size kitchen with window bay breakfast
nook and generous closet space. The building combines the solid
construction of 30 years ago with the charm and style only available
with a caring and hardworking homeowners association. In recent
years the HOA leadership has successfully replaced the elevators
and re-docorated the elevator cabs, building lobby and all of
the halls. It's modernized its governing documents and finances,
including growing the reserves. It has also overhauled its day
to day management procedures and personnel.
And for those who think condominiums can
be quarrelsome places, consider this condo community's succesful,
unanimous vote to assess itself (already paid) for additional
improvements including the exterior painting of the building.
In recent years there has been a large turnover in the Century
Plaza. Many original owners so loved the place they stayed on
as long as they could. But, now the demographics reflect a residential
membership of active professionals with cosmopolitan interests
and tastes.
And think of the value: all of this and 1,550
square feet for just a bit more than $500 per square foot. Where
could you do so well? The same unit on a higher floor recently
sold for over a million dollars.
