About this property

The 1905 House by Coastline Vacation Rentals

This property is professionally managed by Coastline Vacation Rentals, a local San Diego-based hospitality team specializing in beautifully designed homes and personalized guest care. We’re proud to offer thoughtfully curated stays that let you relax, explore, and experience the best of the coast — with consistent quality you can trust.

The space
Located just two blocks south of University Avenue, Hillcrest's main drag, this home is within walking distance of restaurants and cafés, yet tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac. Originally built in 1905, the property was converted into a medical office in 1979 by the owner’s father, a dermatologist. After his retirement, the family lovingly renovated the space to return it to its original use as a residence.

The entire second story of the home is reserved exclusively for guests, offering a spacious and private retreat filled with character. Sunlight streams through the windows, illuminating the home’s many vintage details — from the original retro pink tile bathroom to the beautifully preserved wallpaper that adds a nostalgic touch of personality and charm.

This space is perfect for guests who appreciate a stay that feels unique and storied, rather than cookie-cutter. Thoughtful updates blend seamlessly with these original features, including quality furniture and furnishings chosen for both comfort and style. A private patio offers a quiet spot to sip coffee or unwind in the evenings, while a full kitchen provides everything needed for home-cooked meals.

You will also enjoy the convenience of on-site parking, a rare find in this vibrant neighborhood, making it easy to explore Hillcrest and beyond while having a comfortable, distinctive home to return to at the end of the day.

Guest access
There is a well-lit private entrance and exit, a private staircase which leads up to the second floor guest suite. Guests will be able to access a parking space in the adjoining parking lot.

Other things to note
The washer and dryer are shared with the downstairs unit.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an ironing board.
