About this home
This west-facing corner studio at Metrome offers an open, spacious layout with abundant natural light and a surprisingly generous kitchen rarely found in a studio. The kitchen features dark cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel backsplash, black and stainless appliances, and an expansive eat-at bar that creates the perfect separation between the kitchen and living space. The flexible floor plan provides plenty of room to create distinct living, sleeping, dining, and work-from-home areas, while large windows bring in natural light and offer an urban East Village outlook. Additional features include in-unit laundry, a Nest thermostat, and a gated underground parking space — a major convenience for downtown living. Located in the Metrome community, you're just blocks from Petco Park and moments from the Gaslamp Quarter, San Diego Convention Center, waterfront, restaurants, coffee shops, nightlife, and everything Downtown San Diego has to offer. Whether you're looking for a primary residence, downtown pied-à-terre, or investment opportunity, this turnkey East Village studio puts you right in the center of it all.
