Welcome to this charming 1915 Craftsman, a home filled with history, creativity, and a deep sense of care. This was our mother’s house, and much of the artwork, décor, and color throughout the space reflects her original vision. We’ve preserved what made it special while updating the essentials for comfort and ease.
We welcome guests from all over the world, and we’ve shaped the home to feel warm, personal, and inviting—whether you're here for work, exploration, or rest.

Outdoor Spaces
A street-facing patio perfect for morning coffee with comfortable furniture, plus a shaded pergola seating area at the front of the property for relaxing in the evenings. The garden features mature fruit trees, flowers, and a variety of lush greenery.

Located in one of San Diego’s most vibrant historic urban neighborhoods—where I’ve lived since 2008—it offers unbeatable access to the city’s best areas: Downtown, Gaslamp, Balboa Park, North Park, South Park, Hillcrest, Bankers Hill, Barrio Logan, Coronado, Petco Park, and the Convention Center. You're also just 20 minutes from the border.
This home is a comfortable, soulful base for exploring San Diego like a local.

Summary: This cute craftsman cottage is super sweet, comfortable, and accommodating and had everything we needed for a weeks stay. Great updated kitchen and bath, cozy bedrooms and living area. We loved all of the thoughtful details and unique pieces of art and furniture. The location is great and our dog loved the multi-use field a block away - perfect place for pre-bed zoomies. Easy to get just about anywhere you want to go in San Diego.
