Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Settle into the velvet sofa as the sun dips below the San Diego skyline – then head upstairs to the rooftop terrace, where a fire pit and fading pink sky set the scene for a special evening. Back inside, the living room keeps things relaxed and unhurried, with views that pull you toward the outdoors at every turn. The deck is set up for alfresco dining and barbecues, and when you're ready to venture out, Balboa Park, Little Italy, and the Gaslamp Quarter are all within easy reach.

Home truths
While one of the bathrooms isn’t photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a travel cot and high chair. Ask ahead of your arrival to make sure everything is ready when you get there.
The home sits on a steep hill and there are ten stairs between the parking area and the front door, so it's worth bearing in mind if you have limited mobility or heavy luggage to carry.
You'll have one designated parking space, but the driveway can be tricky for low-clearance vehicles and street parking nearby is limited – factor that in if you're arriving in a larger or lower-slung car.
This is a quiet neighbourhood with a strict noise ordinance enforced from 9pm – it's well suited to groups who wind down early and keep things relaxed in the evenings.
