    About This Home

    Enjoy the comfort and privacy of a full standalone home in the heart of San Diego — not a condo, not an apartment, and not a shared space.

    Located on a private corner lot, this home gives you the freedom of having the entire house to yourself, plus on-site parking and unbeatable walkability to Petco Park and the Gaslamp District. I do not live on-site, so your stay is completely private.

    The home comfortably sleeps 6 guests, with flexibility for up to 8 using the living room pullout and a queen air mattress (available upon request). Perfect for weekend getaways, Padres games, conventions, or business travel.

    Neighborhood Transparency (Please Read)

    This is a downtown-adjacent urban neighborhood. Like most major city centers, you may see some homeless activity in nearby blocks, particularly around Gaslamp and East Village.
