Downtown San Diego’s (multi) Million Dollar Homes
May 10th, 2012 Categories: Downtown San Diego Penthouses
In 2011, there were 1028 condo sales in downtown San Diego. Only one of which sold for $3M or more(it was a 4br/4.5ba, two story, 4,528 sqft condo in The Rennaisance, that sold for $3M). YTD, 2012 has had no sales at, or above $3M, but currently has five active listings ranging in price from $3,353,000-5,500,000. These are downtown San Diego’s million dollar penthouses (and even one $5.5M townhouse).
San Diego’s Most Expensive Real Estate
December 27th, 2011 Categories: Downtown San Diego Penthouses, San Diego Sales Statistics
As I sit in my office, recovering from Christmas with the family, I begin to wonder how the high end real estate market is doing in San Diego. Each part of San Diego has its own “high end” market, but today, I chose to only search for homes that sold for $5M or more. To my somewhat surprise, I learned that 27 $5M-plus homes/estates/mansions had sold so far this year.

The properties range from a 1245 sqft 1br/1.5ba at the Metropolitan Club (top of the Omni Hotel), to a $5.5M 38th floor penthouse at the Harbor Club. Only 15 of these “million dollar” penthouses are listed at $2M or higher. YTD, 2011 has had 32 sales over $1M(there may have been more off the MLS), with the most expensive sale at Bosa Development’s Bayside highrise, for $2.85M for one of their 35th floor penthouses.
Sapphire Tower Condos – What’s Left?
April 14th, 2011 Categories: Downtown San Diego Penthouses
Even though the economy crashed, the real estate bubble burst(more like blew the #@! up) and lenders tightened there purses, San Diego real estate is somehow still doing well. New buildings like the Sapphire Tower and Bosa’s Bayside have done surprisingly well. Sure, they dropped their prices considerably, but they’re still not cheap.
Sapphire Tower, if you recall, is a 31 story luxury highrise that was built by Centurion Properties in 2008. This 97 unit building is located at 1262 Kettner Blvd and has less than 30 units left to sell. Sapphire Tower had an average sales price of about $800,000 in 2010 and roughly an average sales price per square foot in the low $500/sqft range.
Dog vs. Penthouse
March 16th, 2011 Categories: Downtown San Diego Penthouses
It’s commonly known that a dog is a man’s best friend. I for one, couldn’t agree more. Dogs are loyal, loving, entertaining and just plain fun. I grew up with three German Shepherds and as a kid, I’d often find myself telling my dog(s) about how sad/happy/excited/bored/etc. I was. Dogs are, well, they’re awesome.
As it turns out, I’m not the only one who feels this way. According to the British publication, Mail Online, a coal baron just purchased the world’s most expensive best friend. An 11 month old puppy
The End is Near
March 7th, 2011 Categories: Downtown San Diego Penthouses, San Diego Real Estate Deals
As you know, I’m a fan of Bosa Development’s, The Grande condos. Additionally, one of my all time favorite floor plans is the E plan at the Grande. Right now, there’s a penthouse E plan for sale at The Grande and I think it’s an incredible deal. Originally priced at $2,790,000, this 36th floor penthouse condo was being offered fully furnished. Since then, the owners have lowered the price and excluded the furniture from the sales price.
Insane Price…
December 2nd, 2010 Categories: Downtown San Diego Penthouses
Someone has just listed a $1,725,000 penthouse in downtown San Diego. It’s the top two floors of a highrise and it has 2,204 sqft and is a 3br/2.5ba two story condo. At $783/sqft, it’s not a bad price for a penthouse, but wait…it’s in ACQUA VISTA! Now I’ve grown to appreciate Acqua Vista, but that’s because people can buy condos(often times with a great view) for very little money. Since values have dropped there, I think you can find great deals there. However, spending $1,725,000 on anything in this building is just crazy.
The Mark Condos Penthouse

World’s Most Expensive Penthouse
September 15th, 2010 Categories: Downtown San Diego Penthouses
A month or two ago, a London penthouse sold for $220 million, setting the new world record for the most expensive piece of residential real estate. The One Hyde Park residence is a six bedroom penthouse that neighbors the Mandarin Oriental hotel and overlooks the famous Serpentine lake. However, just a few days ago, a new world record was made when a $308M penthouse sold in Monaco.
The $308M penthouse only has three bedrooms, but covers 17,500 square feet. The two story penthouse has

Bosa Developments last top floor penthouse condo at Bayside at the Embarcadero, just hit the MLS yesterday. Unit 3602, which is being sold through Bayside by Bosa, is one of three top floor units at Bayside. At 3,226 square feet, it is also the largest unit in the highrise.
