About this property

Three King Beds, Two Large Desks and a Gourmet Kitchen near La Jolla

Our home is perfect for those who are working from home while on vacation. Two of our bedrooms have large desks, and we have an additional small desk in the living room. All of our bedrooms are ideal for adult couples, as we have three king-sized beds. Families with children are welcome as well. We provide extra bedding and air mattresses in case our three beds are not enough for your family. The primary bedroom has a traditional king-sized bed, a very large desk with a comfortable office chair, and a walk-in closet. We even have a laser printer in case you need one. One of the two smaller bedrooms has a large desk with an office chair, an electronic piano, and a California-king-sized bed. The third bedroom has a California-king-sized bed. A California-king-sized bed is slightly longer, and slightly narrower than a traditional king. Each bedroom has a closet and a dresser that are available for use by guests. We allow most pets, including dogs. Everyone is welcome, so come as you are!

Do you like to cook? Our home has a very well-equipped kitchen. In addition to the basic cookware that you expect to find in all vacation rentals, our kitchen offers several amenities that set us apart. We have a Kitchen-aid stand mixer, a pasta maker, numerous different pots and pans, including some cast iron pans. We also have stainless steel and aluminum pans as well. We also have some unusual items, including a fondue service and a barware set. Try your hand at mixing some drinks like a pro! We have plenty of high-quality place settings and glassware as well.

Our home has four notable outdoor spaces. One is a private courtyard that is enclosed by a wall. The courtyard has a locking gate, so nobody will disturb you. We have two enclosed patios to the rear and side of the house. One has the BBQ and an outdoor dining table. The other has a propane-powered fire pit table and lounge chairs. The forth is a large side yard that is not enclosed.

In the garage, you will find a modern front-loading washing machine and dryer, which you are welcome to use. The remainder of the garage has been walled off, and is not available for use by guests. Guests are welcome to park on the driveway.

The TV is a Samsung 80-inch QLED smart TV. You may access any video streaming services that you may have subscriptions to, such as YouTube TV and Netflix. Internet speed usually measures around 100 mbs for download and 10 mbs for upload. This is much more than adequate for viewing 4k programming on the one TV that is provided. There is no local TV reception at this location, and we do not have cable TV. The owners routinely work from the home when visiting, and the internet is much faster than necessary for videoconferencing and other simultaneous work activities. For those who enjoy participating in spin classes, we have a Keiser M3i exercise bike, which you may position in front of the TV.

Guests may park two cars on the private driveway. There is abundant free parking on both Lipmann and Robbins streets. Additionally, trailer, boat or RV parking may be available on our unpaved side yard. Please inquire with the owner for details, before booking, if you are traveling with any recreational vehicles. The garage is NOT available for use by guests. However, the laundry equipment is located in a separate laundry room, which is available to guests.

Within a short walk to the house, you will find three parks and a local high school. Two of the parks have play structures for young children. One park has a sports field appropriate for baseball, softball or soccer. At the high school, you will find tennis and basketball courts and a shortcut for walking to UTC. Please note that it is illegal to enter the grounds of the high school when school is in session. Also, officially-organized events always have priority over informal play. The world famous golf course at Torrey Pines is a 15-minute drive from the house, and it features a driving range as well.

This home is used exclusively by the guest during your stay. You may use everything that you find in the home, with the following exceptions: 1. The attic, which is locked. 2. The hallway closet near the front door. This is also locked. 3. Guests may use the laundry equipment. The remainder of the garage is walled off for use as storage by the owner. Guests may not enter the walled off area of the garage.

Guests should be aware that we do have security cameras installed in the outside areas of this property. There are two cameras outside of the kitchen on the side of the house, and there are two cameras in the backyard. One camera covers the driveway. One camera covers the side yard. One camera covers the front courtyard. All doors and window are covered by one or more cameras, but at an angle. None of the cameras are aimed into the house such that occupants are visible. This home is also equipped with an alarm system. There are motion sensors in every room of the house, but these are not capable of recording either sound or video. The alarm system and cameras are armed at all times when the house is unoccupied. The alarm system is disarmed prior to a guest's check-in time, and it is re-armed after a guests check-out time. The cameras are motion-sensitive, and they may be on at any time. A blue LED light is visible on each camera when it is recording.

About the host

Hosted by Scott

Host profile image
I am a retired engineer. My wife is an architect. This is our second home that we visit several times each year. We enjoy hiking, scuba diving, and paragliding, all of which present several opportunities in San Diego, I happen also to be a gourmet chef. As such, our kitchen is extremely well equipped. Please see our photos of the kitchen, including the contents of our cabinets.

Why they chose this property

University City is coastal, and central to everything San Diego County has to offer. It is close to the beaches in La Jolla, Torrey Pines, UCSD, and minutes away from three of the major freeways.

What makes this property unique

Our home is almost uniquely well-suited to groups of up to three adult couples traveling together on vacation, as we have three king-sized beds. For those who are working while on vacation, we provide two full-size office desks with office chairs, and an HP laser printer, that also functions as a copier and scanner. We also have a smaller reading desk in the living room. We have a Yamaha Clavinova electronic piano, and yes, guests, including young children, are welcome to play it. Families with children and pets are of course welcome to stay here as well, and many have stayed with us. However, we do not have any child-specific amenities.
