Welcome to Century Plaza Towers — one of San Diego’s most iconic mid-century modern residences, ideally situated in prestigious Bankers Hill with easy access to Balboa Park, Little Italy, and the best of Hillcrest dining and shopping. This spacious upper-floor condo offers sweeping city and treetop views from nearly every room, thanks to floor-to-ceiling glass windows that flood the open living space with natural light. Step out onto your private balcony and soak in San Diego’s skyline and year-round sunshine. The kitchen features warm wood cabinetry, dark granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, flowing seamlessly into a glass-wrapped dining area with panoramic views. Both bedrooms are generously sized, with large sliding windows framing gorgeous city vistas. A private in-unit laundry room adds everyday convenience, while a built-in wet bar with wine cooler brings a refined touch to entertaining. A rare bonus for buyers: this residence qualifies for the Mills Act, San Diego’s historic preservation program that significantly reduces property taxes for owners of qualifying historic homes a valuable, money-saving benefit that’s increasingly hard to find in San Diego’s condo market. With a beautifully appointed lobby, secure entry, and an unbeatable location just minutes from Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, and major freeways, this is urban San Diego living and smart ownership at its finest.
