HISTORIC Craftsman Home in South Park near San Diego Zoo/Balboa Park /Sleeps 8!

Charming Craftsman Retreat in the Heart of South Park

Welcome to our beautifully preserved and updated historic Craftsman home—your perfect San Diego escape for family and friends. Located in one of the city’s most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods, this home offers a blend of timeless character and modern comfort, just steps from South Park’s beloved cafes, restaurants, and boutiques.

The main house features 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with a private entrance and thoughtful touches throughout. Original architectural details like hardwood floors, built-ins, and a cozy front porch create a warm, inviting space to relax after a day of exploring.

Whether you're enjoying coffee on the porch, cooking dinner in the fully stocked kitchen, or curling up for a movie night in the living room, you'll feel right at home. The layout is ideal for both gathering together and finding quiet corners to unwind.

Just two blocks from your door, you'll find some of San Diego’s favorite neighborhood spots—grab brunch at Communal Coffee, sip wine at The Rose, or enjoy local beers at Fall Brewing. Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, Gaslamp Quarter, and Little Italy are all just a short drive away, making it easy to enjoy everything the city has to offer.

Please note: There is an additional living unit behind the house occupied by a long-term tenant. It is completely separate from the main house with no shared living spaces or access.

We love hosting and take great pride in offering a clean, comfortable, and memorable stay. We’re happy to provide recommendations or answer any questions you have before or during your visit.

We’d be honored to host your stay and share this special part of San Diego with you!
