The space
Life flows differently here. The open living space welcomes you with a calm palette inspired by California's coast—soft creams, warm beiges, and gentle sage green touches. A generous kitchen with double ovens and plenty of counter space makes hosting friends as easy as quiet nights in.
Morning light fills the primary bedroom through new dual-pane windows, while the 80 sq ft walk-in closet gives you space to truly settle in. The second bedroom adapts beautifully to your needs, whether as a guest room, creative space, or home office.
Outside, a private outdoor patio creates your own piece of California, perfect for morning meditation or evening gatherings under the stars. And yes, there's a two-car garage—a rare find that makes city living that much easier.

Summary: The owners of this property have thought of everything! From coffee in the kitchen to an immaculate home, this was one of our most comfortable stays in a vacation rental. Jere was a fabulous host and quick to respond with any questions we had. Did I mention the location is perfect? Very close to downtown and Petco Park. It was also about a 10 min drive to the SDSU campus for a tour we scheduled during our visit. Many bars, restaurants and grocery store all within walking distance. Neighborhood was super quiet and easy parking on the street. Would definitely recommend!
