Own a piece of history at the iconic El Cortez! Residence #800 benefits from a Mills Act property tax savings that help offset HOA dues, a financial advantage for Downtown living! This thoughtfully designed 2BR/2BA split floorplan places the bedrooms on opposite sides of the unit, so neither shares a wall, offering true privacy for owners and their guests. Oversized 6 FT windows dressed in plantation shutters frame stunning views of Downtown's skyline, Little Italy, and the Bay, while welcoming in a refreshing Bay breeze throughout the home. This elegant unit is available furnished, making it an effortless move-in as an instant second home or turnkey investment property. Residence #800 also features an in-unit washer and dryer, a rare find within the building! Once a celebrated hotel, El Cortez pairs historic charm with an impressive amenity lineup, including EV charging, a fitness center, a pool, two large common-area patios, BBQ facilities, and "The Don Room". Perfectly situated minutes from Little Italy, Seaport Village, Balboa Park, and major freeway access, this historic gem offers residents both comfort and convenience. City resident parking permit available for purchase at $12.50/year if extra parking is needed.
