Barbara Kushel, an affiliate agent with the San Diego Metro/Mission Valley office of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, has listed a Downtown San Diego home in the historic El Cortez for $620,000. Located at 702 Ash St., Unit 1100, in San Diego, the two-bedroom, two-bathroom and approximately 1,212-square-foot home is one of only four homes on the 11th floor of El Cortez.
“El Cortez is in the National Register of Historic Places, so this is a unique opportunity to own a piece of history,” said Kushel. “Spanning Southwest in the front of El Cortez, this home boasts amazing views of the cityscape, bay, harbor and evening lights from every window. In addition, the Mills Act offers a property tax advantage.”
Designed by Walker & Eisen Architects and built in 1927, El Cortez originally had 85 apartments, 32 hotel rooms and Spanish Renaissance Revival architecture, which is a long-standing landmark in Downtown San Diego. Restored by J. Peter Block Companies, the building currently has 85 living units, 11 commercial units, two sun terraces, a gym, terrace and the Don Room, which is available to rent for events. In addition, there is a 1950s pool and spa.
