Description
Summary
Recently refreshed 1939 bungalow in Bankers Hill, one of San Diego’s best neighborhoods. A cozy 420 sq ft retreat with full kitchen, in-unit washer/dryer, smart TV, memory foam futon, A/C, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Enjoy a lush shared yard with grass, orange, and lemon trees— Yes, you can pick them! Minutes from Downtown.Note: Under flight path—expect some noise. Ground-level unit—keep food sealed to avoid ants and bugs
Details
Tucked within a charming cluster of eight vintage bungalows, this cozy cottage shares a grassy front yard dotted with fragrant orange and lemon trees. Though compact at 420 sq ft, it’s a true 1-bedroom with a separate kitchen, living room, and bathroom—simple, quirky, and full of character. Built in 1939 to house workers, it’s not fancy, but it’s full of charm and practicality. Located just blocks from Balboa Park, Little Italy, and the Gaslamp Quarter, this is your ideal San Diego base.You’ll be in a lively, historic neighborhood surrounded by unique eateries, craft cocktail spots, and grand old homes. On Saturdays, stroll to the Little Italy Mercato for local produce, gourmet eats, and artisan goods. Kids and dogs are welcome—this city embraces both!
Please note: the unit is directly beneath a flight path, so airplane noise is part of the experience (watching the landings can be quite the spectacle!). As it’s ground level and near trees and grass, bugs may appear if food is left out—just something to be mindful of during your stay.
We are longtime San Diego residents, and we love to help our guests get the most out of their time with us. We have partnerships with some of the best tour operators in the city, and we love to recommend activities and restaurants.
The Cottage is located directly in the flight path of San Diego International Airport. Planes fly directly overhead approaching the runway for landing.
