This recently renovated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage is a part of Oceanside's history. Built in 1925, the house has a retro feel with mid-century decor and unique charm. There is not another house like it!
Enjoy all the comforts of home, including a stocked kitchen and open backyard with a patio, barbeque, fire pit, and private, enclosed space to bring the family pet! The backyard provides a great space for entertaining and hanging out. This property is ideal for small groups or families looking to enjoy local sights and activities with a comfortable home to relax in after long days in the sun.
The property is located in the heart of downtown. The location is ideal for those traveling without a car. We are walking distance to shopping, movies, restaurants, bike trails, parks, beaches, pier, harbor, library, cafes, bars, clubs, etc, all within blocks. Oceanside is a small, lively city with great local events like the weekly Sunset Market, farmer's markets, concerts, monthly Art Walk, parades, and triathlons. It is also centrally located for quick access to Legoland, Disneyland, Wild Animal Park, Sea World, etc.
The house has a keypad code entry so we don't have to worry about exchanging keys. Once the rental agreement is received and the house is reserved, we will send the door code. Upon accessing the property, you'll have the house/yard to yourself! We live close by, so if there are any questions or concerns, we are right around the corner.
There is so much going on in Oceanside! We LOVE the weekly Sunset Markets (Thursday evenings) and Farmer's Markets (Thursday morning). Oceanside is eclectic and diverse with a lot of history, and the many activities going on around Oceanside represent that diversity. From plays at local theaters, parades, outdoor concerts, movie theaters, variety of local craft breweries, and excellent dining, there is something for everyone here. And of course, you can't beat being able to walk to the beach! Want good people watching? Throw on your tennis shoes and walk the pier at dusk, grab a milkshake at Ruby's diner, and check out the scene.
We are located just a few blocks from the Oceanside transit center, with train service to the north/south/east (Old Town, Gaslamp/downtown, Encinitas, Carlsbad, Los Angeles, etc). We are also right off the I-5 and I-76, so theme parks like Legoland, Disneyland, Sea World, Wild Animal Park, etc, are a quick drive away.
The master bedroom is on the bottom floor with attached full bath. Two bedrooms are located on the second story, one with a full bed, vanity, and dresser. The other bedroom is ideal for kids, with two twin trundle beds, so it sleeps up to four people (trundle can be raised to make a full size bed, if desired). The third bedroom also includes dresser, vanity, and small balcony with view of the ocean. The second full bathroom is located on the second story. It was added to the home a few years ago, so it includes new floors, fixtures, and plumbing. Living room couch pulls out easily into a full bed. Kids loft includes two fold out futon cushions to sleep extra people. Great for kids.
