👉 2BR/BA San Mateo Condo with Rooftop Lounge & Downtown Access

By
Real Estate Agent with KW Advisors BRE 01456626

RENTED! 
Great investment property.  San Mateo Condo 2BR/2BA, Rooftop, 2-Car Parking & Cafe's Right Outside Your Door!

Discover the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and Peninsula charm at 217 8th Avenue #203 in San Mateo. This contemporary 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo offers effortless living with an open-concept design, a private rooftop lounge, secure parking, and direct access to the best of downtown San Mateo. Whether you’re meeting friends for brunch, catching the Caltrain, or relaxing above the city skyline, this home delivers the modern lifestyle you’ve been waiting for — all in one of the Bay Area’s most strollable and vibrant neighborhoods!

Rare Downtown San Mateo condo with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, rooftop views, and rental flexibility -  perfect for buyers seeking a vibrant lifestyle or investors looking for a smart Peninsula property.

It’s a spacious condo that blends the convenience of city living with the comfort of modern amenities + plus the flexibility to use it as a home or an investment property.

Why This Condo Stands Out

  • Rental flexibility — live here now or lease it later for investment income

  • 2 bedrooms / 2 baths / 1,321 sq ft with in-unit laundry

  • Two parking spaces + extra storage — rare in Downtown San Mateo

  • Rooftop deck/lounge with BBQ and sweeping city views

  • ButterflyMX remote keyless entry with secure package delivery access

  • Building wired for Comcast or Sonic high-speed internet

  • Lock-and-leave convenience — perfect for professionals and travelers

  • Urban accessibility = everything you need is just outside your door

 

📍 The Lifestyle
This condo places you in the very heart of San Mateo:

  • Directly across from Central Park

  • Right by cafés, coffee, restaurants, and fitness studios

  • Close to Caltrain for an easy commute

  • Surrounded by major Peninsula employers, many within walking, biking, or rolling distance

For busy professionals, it’s the perfect balance of convenience, comfort, and flexibility. For investors, it’s a smart way to capture strong rental demand in one of the Peninsula’s most walkable and urban-accessible locations.

Why It’s a Smart Move
Downtown San Mateo condos continue to be in demand thanks to their car-free convenience, lifestyle amenities, and proximity to jobs. But a unit with two parking spaces, extra storage, and rental flexibility is a rare find at this price point.

For anyone looking to buy a condo in Downtown San Mateo or near Central Park, this is one of the few opportunities under $1M with two parking spaces — making it both a lifestyle upgrade and a long-term investment.

Hello, Chris. Congratulations on listing this Downtown San Mateo condo! You nailed the key feature: securing two dedicated parking spaces in this urban core, especially at the $1,000,000 price point, is a huge differentiator for buyers. That combination, along with the rental flexibility, creates a truly rare and high-value investment opportunity for the Peninsula market. Best of luck with the speedy sale.
