Ideally located at 801 Ash Street in the charming Cortez Hill neighborhood, this home provides easy access to some of San Diego’s most desirable destinations. A short stroll connects you to the vibrant dining and nightlife of Little Italy, the excitement of Petco Park, and the cultural and outdoor experiences of Balboa Park. The San Diego Bay is just a 12-minute walk away, making waterfront walks and harbor views part of your daily routine. With secure entry, underground parking, and a prime location near major transit routes, this residence offers the perfect blend of urban energy and everyday convenience. Located in the sought-after Cortez Hill neighborhood, Cortez Blu offers a unique balance of urban convenience and residential charm. As one of Downtown San Diego’s more established communities, Cortez Hill provides a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere while still being just moments from the city’s vibrant energy. Enjoy the convenience of nearby parks, including Balboa Park, where you can take in its lush landscapes, cultural institutions, and historic landmarks like the California Tower. Dining, shopping, and entertainment options are just a short walk away, and easy access to public transportation and major freeways makes commuting a breeze. Built in 2006, Cortez Blu is an intimate high-rise community with only 67 residences spread across 20 stories. While the building maintains a more private setting with fewer amenities, residents enjoy the benefits of a lower-density community, a tight-knit atmosphere, secure entry, and underground parking for added convenience and peace of mind.
