Point Loma Guest House Near Liberty Station
Start the day with morning coffee in the shaded backyard as the vine-covered trees surround you. Have a snack in the kitchen with stainless steel appliances or pair a glass of wine with your favorite TV show as you kick back on the couch. This is a newly built house with guests in mind. We have tried to consider all of your needs in outfitting the kitchen, bedroom and bath. We have USB ports for your gadgets, wifi for your convenience and heat and air conditioning for your comfort. The two-story house has one set of stairs that will take you from the welcoming entryway into the upstairs living space where you will find a fully equipped kitchen, master bedroom and an easily converted couch. You have green views and city lights out the back windows, a view of "the big house" and the dogs out the bedroom windows and city hillside views from the front of the house. In the summer, you can see Sea World fireworks from the bathroom, dining area and kitchen. It's one of the reasons I bought the house. If you know the Point Loma area, then you know that we are in the flight path from the conveniently located airport. Fortunately, San Diego has a noise curfew from 11:30 pm to 6:30 am and the house is equipped with double-paned windows, so if you are a deep sleeper or keep the windows closed, the noise should not bother you. You will have access to the entire house except for the garage. There is plenty of street parking and you are welcome to park on the driveway - it's a bit steep, so be sure to use your parking brake! There is a small undeveloped yard space that is not furnished or particularly useful, but you are welcome to stand under the tree and look at the neighbor's fence ;-). I will be available throughout your stay - unless I inform you otherwise, in advance. Please call or text with any questions or needs. We are new to this process and may have missed something in outfitting the house for you. You are a guest in our guest house. We live right next door and we have a dog who you can greet through the bedroom window, but otherwise he won't disturb you. The house is in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood. We are close to the Trolley station in Old Town and within 10 minutes of the airport. Whether you are renting a car or using Uber to get around, the Point Loma area is within about 15 minutes from just about everything, from La Jolla to Mission Valley and we are 30 minutes from the Mexican border and Carlsbad. This is an all electric house - electric stove, electric heat, electric hot water heater, so please be mindful when you leave for the day and turn everything off. Because the house is small, it doesn't take long to warm up or cool off, so no need to leave the heat or A/C on all day while you are off on your adventure or attending a meeting.
