Property Description

Historic Mills Act-designated penthouse in the iconic El Cortez-one of San Diego's most treasured 1920s Spanish Colonial Revival landmarks. This rare top-floor residence offers dramatic southern, eastern, and western panoramas of downtown and the bay, original architectural details such as decorative plasterwork and period tile, plus sensitive modern upgrades to the kitchen, baths, and building systems. As part of a Mills Act contract, the property conveys both significant historic-preservation protections and attractive property-tax benefits, making ownership a unique blend of cultural stewardship and financial advantage. Thoughtfully adapted for contemporary living, the penthouse is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence featuring a spacious open layout with a primary suite plus a second bedroom, in-unit laundry conveniently located by the kitchen, and access to the building's secured historic lobby - which includes a secured package room - and elevator. Situated steps from the Gaslamp Quarter, Little Italy, Balboa Park and the Embarcadero, this offering appeals to buyers who value architectural character, downtown convenience, and the prestige of a landmark address-contact the listing agent for full unit specifications, Mills Act terms, parking and HOA details.
