About the host

Hosted by Stacey

Host profile image

A New Jersey Native, I purchased a Winter Home in Southern California back in 2007 and soon after decided to make the full-time move WEST because of the Sun and the weather that is conducive to my active lifestyle. We are 2.5 hours from Palm Springs, LA, DisneyLand and minutes from La Jolla, Del Mar, Balboa Park, San Diego Zoo, downtown San Diego, the Convention Center and 20 minutes to Tijuana.

Why they chose this property

Location, Location , Location. San Diego is home to one of the most temperate climates. It is close to the water and is within driving distance of mountains, ski resorts, deserts and hiking.

What makes this property unique

When the automated gate opens, and you enter a beautifully landscaped yard, It's not what you would expect. I love that the house is like a tree house and is secluded yet so central to all San Diego has to offer. Love watching the many species of birds and the private spaces.
