Pet owners| Studio Ground Floor | Studio | 1 bath | 225 sqft | $1,499 /mo | 1 unit available | Monarch Studios is a boutique collection of 21 brand-new studios on Commercial Street, tucked into the creative heart of Logan Heights and Grant Hill. What sets Monarch apart is simple and surprisingly rare: every single unit comes with its own private balcony — an outdoor room of your own for morning coffee, a container garden, or a front-row seat to a neighborhood that never stops moving. And it moves right next door. Monarch sits steps from The Soap Factory, the 40,000-square-foot 1920s creative venue that draws concerts, art markets, food pop-ups, and festivals to the block week after week. Live music and string-lit courtyards become part of your ordinary Saturday — and when the night winds down, you're not calling a ride, you're minutes away from your home. Downtown, East Village and Petco Park, Barrio Logan's galleries and taquerias, Balboa Park, and Coronado are all inside a 15-minute drive, with public transit at the corner. Inside, the studios are efficient by design and finished like new construction should be: an open kitchen with a built-in induction cooktop, microwave, and refrigerator; a dining nook that actually fits a table; a full bathroom; generous closet space; luxury vinyl plank flooring; and a private mini-split system for heating and cooling you control yourself. The community is gated with controlled entry and offers assigned on-site parking, an on-site manager, and online rent payments and maintenance requests. Twenty-one studios, twenty-one balconies, one address that puts the city right outside your door. CA DRE #01523691 |
