One-of-a-Kind Craftsman Bungalow in the heart of South Park's Historic District, one of metro San Diego's most desirable neighborhoods. Walk to great restaurants, shopping, coffee shops and Balboa Park. World-famous San Diego Zoo, Sea World, and Downtown San Diego are all a short drive away. Built-in monkey bars, ladder, and climbing wall in the "kids" room. Renovated inside and out. 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in the main house plus a detached guest room/playroom/office in the backyard. You will be staying in a historically designated craftsman bungalow built in 1911 in one of the coolest neighborhoods in San Diego. The whole home was renovated, but the historical charm has been kept, from the antique leaded glass sash-style windows, to the original wainscoting, picture rails and plate rails, and the dining room's built-in buffet. Front Porch: Two chairs and a cushioned porch swing. Set back from the street. Living Room: The living room is separated into three distinct spaces, the piano area, the fireplace area, and the TV area. You'll have a comfy L-shaped sectional that fits 7 guests for movie nights or TV entertainment. There are two high-back leather chairs with ottomans facing the fireplace, and a pearl-white baby grand piano. Historical architectural features include the original craftsman front door, wood beams, original built-in bookcases and columns, original mantel over the remodeled fireplace, original door knobs, picture railing, antique leaded glass windows, and white oak hardwood flooring. Bedroom 1: Queen bed, tall dresser, large closet, ceiling fan, recessed lighting, black-out window shades, and two nightstands, each with an alarm clock and USB charging outlet and bedside lamps. Bedroom 2: This is the "monkey-bar" room. Kids say this is the best room in the house. There are three twin beds, two of which are "stair loft beds" with a weight limit of 250lbs. If you are bringing children, there will be a blow-up tumbling mat on the ground below the monkey bars. Large closet, two dressers, a shelf over each bed, recessed lighting, two clocks, and black-out window shades. Bedroom #3 (not pictured). Currently used as an office with built in furniture but can be used as a bedroom with a queen bed. The monkey bars are designed for kids only. The weight limit for the monkey bars, yellow ladder, and climbing wall is 130lbs. Bathroom: Dual vanity. LED mirror. Two shower heads. Beautifully remodeled. Bathroom 2: Built in storage, shower with glass door Guest Room/Office/Playroom in the Backyard: Three built-in desks if you need a quiet space to work. All desks have multiple USB charging stations. There are also kids' books, games, and toys in this room. French doors that open to the back yard. Dining Room: Dining table and six chairs. Built-in hutch/buffet with glassware. Original wood beams, trim, plate rails, and wainscoting. White oak hardwood flooring. Kitchen: Beautifully renovated with quartz counter-tops, subway tile backsplash, gas stove, microwave, refrigerator, and a beverage fridge. Fully-stocked kitchen. Laundry Room: Large, front-loading washer and dryer. Counter-top for folding laundry and a hanger rod for hanging your clothes. Backyard: You have exclusive use of the backyard. There is a custom-designed gas firepit and plenty of seating for everyone on the built-in benches and designer sectional. There is an outdoor shower on the side of the house to get all the sand off and rinse wetsuits after a day at the beach. There is a regular gas grill for you to use. Side Yard: There is an outdoor dining table and two umbrellas on the driveway side. It's all private behind an artisan craftsman-style gate and trellis. String lights at night make the backyard and side yard a little more magical. It's such an amazing home, you might not want to go out! :-) There is one parking spot in the driveway in front of the gate that guests can use. And plenty of street parking. The windows are original (112 years old), and some function better than others. Monkey bars, climbing wall, and ladder in kids bedroom are to be used at your own risk. Small children must be supervised by a responsible adult. The home is available for a minimum of 6 months but we prefer for someone to stay 12 months. Garage is not included in the rental.
