You are invited to live in an Authentic Victorian apartment in Hillcrest/Banker's Hill. 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath, with original details and moldings, built ins and hardwood floor. Lots of Lights, with nice views and shared backyard. Please click the photos as they are panorama and don't show properly unless clicked. The hardwood floors were just refinished and extended into the kitchen and to the back door. Because you have your own front stoop and back door it feels more like a little house than an ant-farm apartment. There are only 4 units in the building which shares a laundry room. NO PETS or SMOKERS It's a Victorian building so no parking but seldom a problem. Situated on the crest of a hill l, amid classic California Spanish homes in the most interesting neighborhood in San Diego. 131 Brookes is a few blocks to Balboa Park (Zoo, Museums, Playgrounds). And a short stroll to the Hillcrest Business district: a progressive, boutiquey, foodie, multiple bookstore, vinyl record shop and art cinema paradise. Hillcrest is the gayest part of San Diego; which historically means great food, antique stores, cafes and boutiques--along with the whiff of friendly, Mardi Gras playfulness on display at Mo's Bar and Grill and the Brass Rail. But Hillcrest and Banker's Hill is more than brunching at Snooze, browsing 5th Ave Bookshop for a Martin Amis first edition while licking your gelato from Chocolat. It's not just eating at Sushi Co., or picking up a fresh baguette at the local baker or stopping by Taang Records to pick up a vinyl of Dark Side of the Moon. Hillcrest is a few short blocks to Balboa Park, where your children can romp on the playground, or shoot arrows at the archery range or have tea in the zen garden, see Elephants at the Zoo, pretend to be an astronaut at the Space museum or go see a play at the Old Globe. Balboa Park is a walkable resource that everyone else in San Diego has to shlep in their cars to experience. You can hike and ride the mountain bike trails, and still be only an 8 minute drive to Little Italy or Downtown; 15 minutes to Mission Beach and 12 minutes to sailing at the Harbor. The neighborhood is the best of San Diego architecture, which means between the Victorian founding and WWII. Victorian detail and 1920s Spanish Stucco houses and buildings are shaded by mature trees. This is where you want to live in San Diego. No pets or smoking. And please bring the phone number of previous landlords. Fixed utility fee of $95
