The Back Cottage At the rear of the property is a small cottage with a full-time tenant. He has a private entrance from the back street and you may only see him occasionally. He’s friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about San Francisco—feel free to say hello, but please respect his privacy as this is his home.
Fun Facts & History of the House This is a very happy home with a rich and colorful history. Over the years, it has seen many renovations, but some original quirks remain:
The original front entry was where the current window seat is. Back then, steep switchback stairs led up from the street.
The back cottage was originally a carriage house, with horses and carriages entering from what is now Ohlone Way.
During World War II, the cottage housed 9–12 soldiers for over four years. The owners at the time generously opened their home to support the war effort, housing and feeding the soldiers while raising their own family of six. A beautiful slice of San Francisco history!
Parking Info Street parking in front of the house is limited to 2 hours between 7am–6pm, Monday through Friday. For long-term parking, you’ll need to find a spot 1–2 blocks away or use a nearby paid parking structure.
Pet Policy We allow small dogs under 25 lbs with a $100/month pet fee.
Utilities are covered up to $150 per month, any overage the guest is required to pay. Because the utility bill arrives the following month, guests will be responsible for the overage even after they check out.
All guests are required to sign a rental agreement and follow the House Rules. We truly appreciate your understanding—this added step helps protect our home, especially after a few past experiences with guests that resulted in lost time and unexpected costs.
Guests have access to the entire home. The tenant in the back cottage is on the property, but no spaces are shared.
The neighborhood is ideal for those who find enjoying the outdoors an absolute must. Glen Canyon Park occupies nearly 70 acres and offers miles of hiking trails. Walter Haas Park sits atop the hill and could definitely compete for the title of best bay views from a swing set.

“Perfect location—we were just 10 minutes from Union Square, yet felt like locals with a beautiful little village just around the corner. Restaurants, shops, and even a Sunday Farmer’s Market! We felt like we were living the San Francisco life.”
“Super for our needs—two couples meeting for a reunion. Each had our own floor with bedroom and bathroom, giving us privacy, while the main floor was great for spending time together. The deck and views were a real treat.”
“Lovely walking neighborhood, very accessible to transit and downtown. Quiet, nicely furnished, with high ceilings and all the comforts of home. Priced right for a short-term stay in San Fran. We’ll be back!”
“A gem in the hills of San Francisco. I hosted family here for a week and we loved cooking meals in the well-equipped kitchen. It’s close to restaurants, museums, shopping—and with the BART station just a 3-minute walk away, we never needed a car!”
“My sisters and I stayed for a long weekend and the house was perfect: beautifully decorated, safe, quiet, and in a charming neighborhood. Public transit options were excellent, and we loved how easy it was to grab groceries or essentials nearby. Highly recommended.”
