Coffee, breweries, and some of the best dining in the city are right at your doorstep, with University Ave and 30th St an easy stroll away. Balboa Park and the Zoo are a quick drive. Back home, a white picket fence and a pair of palms frame a private courtyard entry that feels more like a cottage than a townhome.

Parking is a rare find in this part of town: a one-car garage, a covered carport, and extra driveway space. Inside, the living room centers on a fireplace and flows into the dining area and kitchen, where a breakfast bar makes entertaining easy. French doors bring the outdoors in. The primary suite opens to a balcony, and the bath has a soaking tub with a separate shower. This home has been cared for so well that it’s move-in ready, yet the layout leaves room to remodel and make it exactly your style whenever you’re ready.
