Last week, I went to Bosa’s broker preview event for their newest highrise, Bayside at the Embarcadero. Unfortunately, my appointments prior to the event ran late and I only caught the tail end of it, only getting to see one of the eight model condos. The good news however, was that the condo I saw was one that I hadn’t seen before and was a floorplan that I really wanted to see.
Bayside’s B floorplan sits on the west side of the highrise, between the corner A and C floorplans. The B floorplan at Bayside is 1,811 sqft and has 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths! Yes, I said 2 and a HALF bathrooms…something that Bosa has really done in San Diego(I’m not sure if any of Bosa’s San Diego highrises have 2.5 baths). The model I saw was on a higher floor and had great views. This is going to be one of Bayside’s strongest selling points in my opinion – protected views(of both water and downtown San Diego’s skyline).
The B model unit was furnished very well and had a pretty good layout. As you can see from the link above, you enter the condo and have dead on water views off of the living room. The large balcony is also a great feature, but there’s only one for the condo.
The laundry room(notice that I didn’t say closet) is large and is called the “flex space/laundry” by Bosa. This is also where the dual HVAC systems are, a nice change from the “what-do-I put-in-here” hallway closets in most other condo highrises.
This Bayside condo, like all the other in the building, has a kitchen island and of course comes with the Viking, Snaidero and Miele appliances. Bayside’s condos also come with a variety of finishes, including Kahrs wood floors and Caesar Stone counters.
I still think The Grande’s E plan is one of the best condos in downtown San Diego, but you’ll need to spend some money if you want the Bayside appliances.
Pricing
Bosa released some of it’s pricing for the Bayside highrise, but only for a few dozen or so condos. The lowest priced condo they told us about was $569K for a 1,101 sqft townhome – $516/sqft. You can buy a 10th floor G plan for $713,000 – $514/sqft, or a 16th floor C plan for $1,001,000 – $712/sqft. The 17th floor B unit is priced at $1,161,000, or $641/sqft. A similar floorplan, the J floorplan, is slightly larger at 1,860 sqft and will cost you $1,500,000 for a 31st floor condo – $806/sqft. Moving along, Bayside’s H floorplan is quit a bit more expensive, listed at $1,919,000 for a 30th floor 1,886sqft condo – $1,017/sqft. The 35th floor S floorplan is HUGE, with 3,226 sqft and is priced just over $3.3 million – $1,023/sqft.
These larger units are priced similar to the condos at Sapphire Tower, but I can’t compare the views since I haven’t been in the Bayside ones yet. I’ll keep you posted, but if you have specific questions, just let me know. I’m anxious to see what other people think of Bayside. It’s definitely an impressive building from what I’ve seen so far.
