12 SAN JUSTO

Situated on one of the most iconic and photographed blocks in Old San Juan, at the corner of San Sebastián and San Justo Streets, this distinctive corner townhouse forms part of a visually unified row of privately owned homes. Distinguished by its corner placement and elevated setting, the residence anchors the block with a vivid canary-green façade accented by cobalt-blue doors, windows, and wood balconies—an architectural palette emblematic of Old San Juan’s historic character. Its position on one of the highest points of the old city affords constant trade-wind cross breezes and open outlooks, with ocean and bay glimpses from multiple levels. The home occupies an intimate footprint, yet unfolds across three levels designed to maximize light, airflow, and indoor-outdoor living. The ground floor features an open kitchen, dining, and living area ideal for entertaining, opening onto a private interior courtyard. A signature outdoor shower—framed in patterned Spanish-style tiles and open to the sky—serves as both a functional amenity and a classic Old San Juan architectural detail, accessed discreetly from within the home and directly from San Sebastian street through an arched blue door. The second level offers two bedrooms and a full bathroom. One bedroom opens onto a wide balcony facing San Justo Street, capturing ocean glimpses and prevailing breezes, while both bedrooms feature Juliet balconies facing San Sebastián Street, enhancing natural light and cross ventilation throughout. The third level hosts a spacious flex room with a full bathroom—suitable as a primary bedroom, family room, or studio—opening directly onto an L-shaped terrace with expansive views over the historic rooftops, the bay, and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. A spiral staircase ascends from the terrace to an open rooftop deck outfitted as a relaxed lookout and lounge area. From this elevated vantage point, the home commands sweeping panoramic views of Old San Juan’s skyline, coastline, and surrounding cityscape. Located on San Sebastián Street, one of the district’s most celebrated thoroughfares and within close proximity to renowned restaurants, cafés, and cultural landmarks, this exceptional corner townhouse offers a rare opportunity to own a visually iconic, light-filled residence that captures the essence of Old San Juan’s architectural and cultural legacy.
