About this home
This is a fourth floor roof top studio that has it all. A full size kitchen, large closet, and a breathtaking ocean view not only from the living quarters but from the Rain shower as well. It has all new appliances as well as AC unit and updated plumbing and electrical. The highlight of this unit is your ability to walk out on to the largest private terrace in Old San Juan. As you walk out, to your right you have clear water views. towards the front of the building, you have an unobstructed view of the Castillo San Felipe del Morro as well as the Catedral de San Juan Bautista which is the second oldest in the Western hemisphere and the oldest on US soil. And to the left, you can watch cruise ships dock at the Marina. The rooftop is large enough to hold private events such as weddings and birthdays. This unit is great for long term or short term rentals and would be a great stream of revenue if you were to purchase one of the other units listed.
Local Insight
At $1,563/sqft for a 320-square-foot 1920s property, you're paying a significant premium for Old San Juan's location and character rather than space or modern amenities—this makes sense if you value walkability and historic charm, but less so if you need room to grow or plan to rent it out conventionally. The lack of HOA is a plus, and being outside a flood zone removes that uncertainty, though at 104 years old this place will likely need serious foundation, electrical, and plumbing work that could easily eat into your equity gains. This is fundamentally a lifestyle and location play for someone who wants to be in the heart of Old San Juan; scrutinize inspection results carefully since you're betting heavily on the neighborhood rather than the property's physical condition or income potential.
