About the host

Hosted by Kent

Host profile image
I purchased this property 25 years ago, spent several years renovating its 20 rooms and installing hundreds of assorted trees and shrubs. I was honored to have this property featured by "Save Our Heritage Organization's Tour of Historic Homes" in 2007. As a long-time house renovator and avid gardener - it has been exciting but daunting to maintain these sprawling gardens year after year.. My 25+ "Regulars" who visit annually offer encouragement and support. "Wow, Kent, the gardens have grown so much since last year." Some even lend a hand with Spring weeding. I'm pleased that nearly all Winter guests of 2022 returned in 2023.

Why they chose this property

Covering 3 parcel lots, nearly an acre -- this is one of the largest residential properties in Uptown San Diego. The upper floor Treetop suite offers 4 - 5 private rooms plus its own walled tropical garden. There are two bubbling fountains on site, and dozens of visiting birds provide a peaceful backdrop as guests spend time on their sunny terrace. Some guests tease that they enjoy the gardens so much -- they neglect local attractions..." relaxing instead... at their own private resort."

What makes this property unique

Picturesque Balboa Park is located next door while Downtown is 5 minutes away, the Airport about 15 minutes west. Hidden among lush greenery - visitors are startled to discover such a sprawling oasis in the central core of urban San Diego. A special surprise are the dozens of hummingbirds, hooded orioles, cooper hawks, owls, and green tropical parrots passing through, stopping to drink or bathe in one of the large garden fountains.
