This home is really sweet and peaceful. It is aesthetically pleasing with hardwood floors, designer colors, and beautiful art work on the walls.
An older home, built in 1925, it has some of the characteristics that one finds in turn-of-the-century homes, such as cove ceilings and crown molding.
You can enjoy San Diego from this wonderful central location near Balboa Park, the zoo, the museums, and a short 10-15 minute drive to the beaches and an even shorter 5 minute drive to downtown San Diego!

Keywords: Beautiful Home with nice sized yard and hard wood floors. The Spanish style is San Diego and the setting is peaceful with all your amenities included.

                            We drove in to run the Rock n Roll Marathon. We loved the neighborhood and all the small restaurants available. The house was a perfect base to relax before the race and celebrate after. The house was clean and the beds were very comfy. We will definitely stay again when we return to beautiful San Diego!!!

                            Nice, clean older house in a good location. We were a group of 5 friends, (one couple and three singles) and it was comfortable and had a good kitchen. Would have liked to stay a few more days and explore the city more. My husband and I loved that it was within walking distance to Veg 'N Out, Balboa park and a wine bar!

                            My family of four (2 adults, 2 young kids) stayed at this home for a long weekend. It was clean and had every thing we needed on site. The location was great for getting to lego land, sea world, balboa park (the zoo), and downtown. The area was nice and has a great pizza place, corner market and coffee shop all around the corner. We would stay here again without hesitation next time we are in San Diego!

                            We live in Wisconisn and have children living in three other states. Staying in this very comfortable home was a perfect way for us to be together under one roof as we were prepared for our daughter's wedding. It was so much better than being in separate hotel rooms. The home was clean, and felt very comfortable for all of us. The owner was very accomodating and responsive to all my communications. I would highly recommend this property to others and would definitely stay again!

                            Love the property, loved the location everything was as advertised and the house was fantastic. We were there for a long weekend (August 9th-13th) with family to celebrate my nieces deployment. Five of us stayed in the house and it was very comfortable. I would certainly stay in the house again. Easy access to interstates and all things San Diego lots of great eateries in North Park. Do not believe any of the negative reviews. This house was fantastic and Gail was extremely hospitable and professional and let us host a Birthday party one evening. We also received our security deposit back within 24 hours of vacating the residence. Thank you so much the house made the weekend ever more so memorable.

                            This house was perfect for my family. Everyone had their own bedroom so there was privacy vs. a hotel room. Having 2 bathrooms instead of 1 was a big plus. It was supplied with many ammenities so we didn't have to go out and get them ourselves. The yard was great to sit and relax in. Perfect location to many attractions and restaurants; just a short drive. Owner was great to work with and very accessible. Would definately come back to this house again without hesitation.

                          Owner info

                          Year Purchased: 2004

                          About the owner: I moved to San Diego when I was 20 years old and in the first months of being here, I called my mother and told her that I would live here for the rest of my life. 30 years later, this seems to be coming true. I love to hike, bike, swim in the ocean, play with my dogs, and enjoy great food and wine.

                          Why the Owner Chose North Park:
                          I decided to vacation rental this home because I live part-time with my partner in a nearby community. I didn't want to rent it completely, so I thought this would be a good alternative. I love to travel myself and often wish I had home away from home, just like mine. I thought I would offer it to others.

                          The Unique Benefits at this House:
                          I moved to North Park in San Diego because of the central location to the urban excitement of San Diego without the congestion of condos and apartments. I wanted to be able to walk and bike to Balboa Park! I wanted to walk around the corner to a coffee shop or a café or the gym and enjoy not driving!
