About this property

Classic San Diego Home • Outdoor Lounge + Vintage Charm | Casa Craftsman

  • Historic character, modern comfort, and a great San Diego location come together at Casa Craftsman. Just minutes from Balboa Park, North Park, and the coast, this home offers warm interiors, family-friendly touches, and a backyard made for easy evenings outdoors.

    What guests love most about Casa Craftsman:

    Classic charm with modern comfort. This beautifully preserved Craftsman home features warm wood details, natural light, and thoughtfully updated interiors that feel both timeless and easy to settle into.

    Open-concept living for connection. The living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly, creating a welcoming space for movie nights, shared meals, and relaxed mornings at home.

    Family-friendly touches throughout. Toys, games, puzzles, and a play kitchen (available upon request) make this home especially inviting for families traveling with kids.

    Comfortable sleeping for your group. Three well-appointed bedrooms offer flexibility and comfort, with two queen beds and one double, plus two full bathrooms for added convenience.
    Outdoor living, done right. The backyard is designed for unwinding, with a firepit lounge, BBQ grill, outdoor dining, and cornhole—perfect for everything from casual afternoons to evening hangouts.

    Location that makes exploring easy. Walk to nearby shops, groceries, and dining, or head just minutes to Balboa Park, North Park, and San Diego’s coastline. Guests also enjoy access to a nearby pool, tennis courts, and park just across the street.

    Everyday convenience built in. A full kitchen and in-home washer and dryer make longer stays simple, comfortable, and stress-free.

From riding waves to riding Belmont Park's seafront roller coaster, there's plenty to do in this upbeat, laid-back seaside destination. Ride a bike to La Jolla Cove to watch sea lions sunbathe before dining on authentic Mexican fare. This is the burrito capital of the world, after all! With SeaWorld, Legoland, and one of the best zoos in the country, it's playtime all the time in this sunny Southern California city.

4.5 stars but I rounded up. Avantstay are great hosts with your stay there top priority. Great things about this San Diego location. Very nice and clean house, great kitchen and hang out spot. Neighborhood/house has great and easy parking. Location is close (15-20 mins) to most spots in SD and a block away from a grocery store. Some knocks against it. Neighborhood is very lively with action, noise and load cars driving by. Bathrooms are nicely remodeled but can be a bit cramped and it would be nice if at least one of the beds were a larger size.

The home was clean and cozy, but the beds were uncomfortable and noisy. One bed had a low spot and the frame of the other bed was creaky! Being an old house, the walls are thin, so you could hear everything. But then again, that’s the charm of staying in an old house.
