Welcome to Unit 513 at Porto d’Italia, a rare penthouse opportunity in the heart of Little Italy. Perched on the top floor of this sought-after community, this beautifully appointed 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an unbeatable blend of charm, convenience, and vibrant city living. Step outside your door and find yourself immersed in the very best of Little Italy — award-winning restaurants, charming cafés, boutique shops, and the beloved weekly Farmers Market, all just moments away. You’ll also enjoy easy access to the waterfront, public transportation, and San Diego International Airport. Despite its central location, the home is tucked into a serene pocket of the neighborhood, offering a peaceful retreat above the energy below. Inside, the residence offers an open, inviting layout and a spacious primary suite with a walk-in closet. Thoughtful updates elevate the space, including refreshed cabinetry with matte black hardware, updated sinks and light fixtures in the kitchen and both bathrooms, and floating shelves in the primary bath. One dedicated parking space is included in the secure underground garage, along with access to community amenities such as a beautifully maintained courtyard patio with two BBQs and gorgeous bay views, plus a fully equipped fitness center conveniently located on the first floor. Opportunities on this level in Porto d’Italia are exceptionally rare, making this a truly special offering in one of San Diego’s most walkable, lifestyle-driven neighborhoods.
