Welcome to Aria, where downtown energy meets your own private oasis on Cortez Hill. This premium southwest corner residence boasts one of the largest private terraces in Downtown San Diego, with over 2,500 square feet of combined indoor and outdoor living. A sweeping wall of curved floor-to-ceiling windows wraps the open living space in natural light, framing the city by day and shimmering skyline views by night. The expansive terrace delivers postcard sightlines of the iconic El Cortez and creates a true outdoor room for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or unwinding under the stars. The open layout flows seamlessly between living, dining, and kitchen, anchored by rich dark wide-plank flooring. The kitchen is a true centerpiece, outfitted with sleek European-style cabinetry, frosted glass uppers, a soft glass tile backsplash, and dark stone counters that frame a generous center island. Premium stainless appliances include double wall ovens, an induction cooktop, built-in microwave, and full-size refrigerator. Both bedrooms open directly to the terrace, blending peaceful retreat with the pulse of the city just beyond the door, while a polished bathroom with full-size tub and crisp white tile completes the home. PLUS tandem parking and storage. Residents also enjoy newly added on-site security and concierge service most days of the week.
