East Village San Diego Lofts

Lofts in East Village Downtown San Diego

Downtown San Diego’s East Village ball park neighborhood is quickly becoming one of the most popular neighborhoods in San Diego County. With a great mix of residential condos, retail and commercial businesses, and work live lofts in San Diego, East Village high density living is becoming the way of future building because of its sustainable living design.

Live, work and play all in your own neighborhood and replace your car with a new pair of walking shoes. With a professional baseball stadium, fabulous restaurants, great bars, a bowling alley, a movie theater, a grocery store, a bakery, a major shopping mall and a light rail trolley system all within minutes, what more could you possibly need?

As we see many young professionals and empty nesters flock to this ball park neighborhood, East Village Lofts have become quite the popular choice.  People buy lofts because they like the creative spaces, open floor-plans, high ceilings, exposed concrete, and the lack of a cookie cutter feeling that many traditional high-rise condos offer.  What makes a property a loft?

East Village Lofts are characterized by:

  • Exposed concrete ceilings.  Usually higher ceilings than most traditional condos as the ceilings are not dropped to hide fire sprinklers and duct work.
  • Exposed duct work and plumbing
  • An open floor plan with no interior walls creating bedrooms.  Yes, lofts do have enclosed bathrooms.
  • San Diego downtown lofts may include one or two stories.  If there is a second floor, it usually hangs out over the first floor and opens up as if it were a balcony overlooking the first floor.  This style of East Village Loft creates dramatically high ceilings in the main living space.
