About this property

Downtown SLO Eclectic Victorian-Sleeps 12

🏡 The Space
Charming and spacious early-1900s Victorian home located in the heart of San Luis Obispo. Just a scenic ½-mile stroll to downtown, this historic treasure showcases all the character that makes vintage homes so special.

Decorated in a fun and casual style, the home comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests. The fully stocked red retro kitchen features a beautifully restored 1954 O’Keefe-Merritt stove that works wonderfully. Perfectly set up for large groups of friends or family, this home offers a memorable Central Coast getaway.

🔑 Guest Access
Guests have access to the entire home, a private side patio, and a shared back patio. Parking is available in front of the single-car garage behind the home, as well as on the street.

📲 Host Availability
I am always just a message or phone call away if you need anything during your stay.

🏘️ Neighborhood
Well-established, quiet neighborhood with sidewalks and open street parking. Centrally located near downtown, shopping, and restaurants.

📍 Location & Walkability
Approximately a ½-mile walk to the heart of downtown San Luis Obispo — everything is just a straight stroll down Broad Street. Uber and Lyft are also available if you’d like to venture farther.

Perfect SLO vrbo

This location was excellent. Beautiful, well maintained house with authentic SLO Victorian ambiance while having all the modern bells and whistles. Stayed for a long weekend with family and couldn't have asked for a better place. Walking distance to downtown for coffee and pastries every morning!

Wonderful home! Very spacious for groups.

We had an awesome stay in the home! Beds were super comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. It was a great stay for our group and had plenty of space for the 11 of us. The host was also quick to respond to our questions and flexible in letting us make a last minute adjustment to our stay.
