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.

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.
