About 1609 Polk Ave

Welcome to this beautifully maintained tri-level townhome in the heart of University Heights, just steps from the vibrant neighborhoods of Hillcrest and North Park and the upcoming Normal Street Promenade. With a low HOA and a private two-car garage, this home offers both style and convenience. The flexible layout features dual master suites and an optional den that can become a third bedroom. Highlights include a gourmet kitchen with a large island, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, hardwood floors, updated dining room, luxurious bathrooms, a private balcony, and in-unit washer/dryer. Don’t miss this opportunity to live in one of San Diego’s most vibrant neighborhoods! 12 on Polk offers a unique opportunity to live in a townhome with no common walls, as each home is believed to be separated by a 4-inch gap with discreet copper coverings hiding the separation. Buyers and their agents should verify all details before closing escrow. The property features a large chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances, distressed hardwood floors, granite countertops throughout, a tankless water heater, custom window coverings, and an oversized two-car private garage. The open floor plan includes dual master suites with walk-in closets and a bonus room on the entry level. This prime location is within walking distance of trendy bars, excellent restaurants, unique boutiques, the farmers market, Balboa Park, Sprouts, and all the amenities Hillcrest and North Park offer. Plus, it’s just steps away from the upcoming Normal Street Promenade, a new project designed for strolling, enjoying al fresco meals, and participating in community events. The Normal Street Promenade is a true reflection of San Diego’s commitment to thoughtful urban development.
