    What's special

    Our beautifully preserved, historic 2BR/1BA Craftsman flat is just 5-minutes' walk to downtown San Diego along Broadway, a few blocks from Balboa Park, and close to coffee shops, cool eateries, markets, and bakeries. Featuring high ceilings, hardwood floors, and original Craftsman built-in dining cabinets, this unit is in a desirable, quiet neighborhood yet near city activities and fun. The building is an exceptionally maintained historic 4-plex built in 1906 that celebrates the quality of time-tested craft, design, and charm. The built-in dining cabinets are mahogany, and a requisite fireplace is conveniently upgraded to gas. In keeping with the allure, yet offering full functionality, the bathroom features a clawfoot tub and pedestal sink. A fully functional, vintage stove creates the ideal kitchen setting. This is a large two-bedroom unit on the lower, right side of the building. If you can climb four steps to get onto the porch, everything else in the house provides for level, easy access. Once you enter the unit through the living room, you will see the dining room, which leads to a short hallway that separates the dining room, the bathroom, the two bedrooms, and the kitchen. There is a back door off the kitchen that leads to the backyard area. Both bedrooms are private, yet they are adjoined by a door between the rooms. For added private access, you can enter the back bedroom exclusively from the porch through the back door just to the right of the back kitchen door. The door has a keyless entry lock for easy access from the kitchen to the back bedroom. True to its Craftsman style, the large dining room, with its large exposed beams, is open and accessible from the living room and serves as the center piece of the flat. The dining cabinets are the original built-ins, and a large, bottom pull drawer features a rollaway bed that could be pulled out and rolled anywhere in the house. Be sure to check out the date on the old, iron bed wheels! A front porch bistro table provides a welcoming opportunity to enjoy the beautiful street trees. Plus, an additional seating area on the back deck, with stunning, sweeping views of the downtown San Diego city skyline, will invite you to watch the sunset every evening you can. ~ This old-style charm, turn-of-the-century multi-family Crafstman-style property located at the west end of Golden Hill, just minutes from downtown San Diego features four, charming apartment units, complete with bay windows, wood floors, fireplaces, and solid-wood moulding throughout. Enjoy sunset views of downtown. All units include range/oven and refrigerator.
