About this property
Mission Hills Historic Bungalow
- Living room has two seating areas
- Open concept dining room (open to living room and kitchen)
- Large full bathroom
- 2 King Beds + 1 Twin Bed
- Updated kitchen with all modern amenities
- Full size laundry room
- Backyard for grilling/relaxing
Relax in the historic neighborhood of Mission Hills while conveniently close to all the San Diego attractions (Balboa Park, Sea World, San Diego Zoo, La Jolla, Beaches). This historic 1920's bungalow has been newly renovated with A/C and new hardwood floors throughout. The open and bright decor has been curated to give you the feeling of home while you are visiting family, friends or just enjoying a well deserved vacation.
There is a spacious living room with two seating areas for reading and watching TV. The living room opens into a large dining room that will seat the whole family or group. The dining rooms flows into the kitchen which still maintains a vintage feel with its original cabinets. However there is no hardship as it is stocked with modern amenities (microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker). There are two bedrooms with KING size beds and ample closet space. There is one room with a twin. All the bedrooms have ROKU TV and ceiling fans. Additionally the entire house has blackout curtains for privacy and restful slumber. There is a large laundry room off the kitchen. The backyard has space to relax in with your group as you grill on the BBQ or a quiet place to sit amongst the fruit trees while drinking coffee and eating a fresh pastry from the local coffee shop Kettle & Stone. The bungalow is walkable to many coffee shops, restaurants (Fort Oak, Thorn Brewery), parks (Pioneer & Presido Parks) and boutiques (Moon & Sun, M-Theory) but downtown San Diego and Little Italy are just a short UBER ride away ($10-15 dollars).
For those with little ones, children's toys, books, portable crib and high chair are available. References for babysitters can also be provided if requested.
