Mission Valley condos, San Diego, California: Friars Mission

Friars Mission condominiums are located in eastern Mission Valley in
San Diego, California.

There are 166 units built from 1975 to 1978, and they range from 1,172 square feet to 1,536 square feet. Floor plans include two bedrooms/two bathrooms, two bedrooms/three bathrooms, and three bedrooms/two bathrooms. To the best of my knowledge, all units have interior laundries.

The central location of Friars Mission provides quick and easy access to Qualcomm Stadium, home of the San Diego Chargers, as well as world-class shopping and dining throughout Mission Valley.

At nearby Fenton Marketplace there's a Costco, Lowes, Ikea, and Islands Restaurant, a new branch of the San Diego Public Library, and a San Diego Trolley station.

If you're a golfer, you'll enjoy the close proximity of your Friars Mission condo to both the Riverwalk Golf Course and the Tecolote Canyon Golf Course.

The many paths along the San Diego River which runs through Mission Valley provides great opportunities for biking, skateboarding, roller blading, walking, or jogging.

From the central location of your Mission Valley condo:

• Head north for a few minutes and see the harbor seals at La Jolla and the cave at La Jolla Cove, and enjoy unparalleled shopping and dining.
• Just a few minutes south and you're in downtown San Diego where you can enjoy a San Diego Padres game at PetCo Park, visit the USS Midway Museum, take a stroll along the Embarcadero, or shop at Seaport Village. Go a few minutes further and enjoy the sights and sounds of Tijuana, Mexico!
• Less than 30 minutes to the east and you're in the mountains of Alpine and a little further will take you to Lake Cuyamaca and Julian (stop in Julian and get a world-famous apple pie).
• A short drive west will take you to Sea World, Fiesta Island, and much of Mission Bay.

Amenities at Friars Mission include swimming pool, spa, picnic areas, fitness center, tennis courts, and a clubhouse.

Homeowners Association dues are about $310 to $375 a month and include common area maintenance, landscaping, exterior building and roof maintenance, sewer, trash pickup, water, and limited insurance.
