Welcome to this rustic garden cabin by the beach. This is a unique home with its proximity to the coastline, vaulted ceilings and private garden. The interior of the home features two bedrooms and one bathroom with an open floor plan and a beautiful chef's kitchen. The space boasts an abundance of windows and natural light and is filled with the warmth that natural wood finishes and soft uplighting provide. A natural gas wall heater and in-wall air conditioner provide climate control but most days the temperate coastal climate is perfect for opening the windows and allowing the breeze to move through the home. The laundry space is located on a covered patio nestled into the garden behind locking keypad operated gates.
The dedicated parking space off the ally is just steps from your private gate and has a motion light to make access to your home easy at all times. The unit includes a dedicated 5'x10' storage unit.
The garden is filled with an eclectic mix of edibles, drought tolerant succulents and flowering perennials. The fruiting varieties include fig, orange and banana. The abundance of mature plantings provides shade and privacy.
We love animals and welcome your furry friends under 35 pounds.
The photos in the listing are from a couple years ago and the home is being rented unfurnished but still feels as well maintained as ever.

4/10Living in Imperial Beach
Imperial Beach occupies San Diego County’s southwestern coast, where the Pacific meets the Tijuana River estuary. Mild, sunny weather and ocean breezes shape daily life, with the beach, pier and nearby estuary offering places to walk, watch birds and enjoy the water. Outdoor space is a defining amenity: the shoreline supports surfing and strolls, while the river valley has trails and wildlife-viewing areas. Local dining and coffee spots cluster near Palm Avenue and the beachfront; shops and everyday services are also found along Palm Avenue. The city’s small-town coastal history is reflected in its beach community character, while arts events and live music add occasional evening options. The area is served by local buses, and driving connects it with the wider South Bay. For ZIP code 91932, median rent is $3,000 per month, with a typical range of $950 to $13,995.
