Vacation Rental DescriptionCompletely renovated and tastefully furnished Victorian Cottage in the
beautiful upper Haight-Ashbury/Buena Vista Heights neighborhood of San
Francisco, across the street from 36-acre Buena Vista Park. The
Cottage was once the carriage house for the neighboring and lovingly
restored and maintained historic Victorian house occupied by the
owners, has its own private entrances and mail box as well as its own
phone, cable TV, and high-speed internet connection through the cable
TV with a wireless router. There is a 27" color TV with DVD player in
the living room; another TV in one of the bedrooms has a built-in VCR.
The gated entry on Buena Vista Avenue East opens to a large private
garden with patio leading to the front entry of the Cottage. Once
inside, you step through a small vestibule into a large living room
with lots of natural light that runs the width of the Cottage and is
separated from the kitchen by a high counter and elegant above-counter
cabinets. On the same floor is the fully-equipped kitchen (including
plates, glasses, flatware, pots & pans as well as dishwasher, oven,
stove, microwave, toaster, and toaster oven) and small office and
half-bath. Upstairs are two bedrooms with ample closet space, each
with a double bed, dresser and other accessories. The bedrooms share
a large modern bathroom with bathtub/shower combination. The washer
and dryer are in one of the large closets in the east bedroom.
Skylights brighten the hall, bath, and bedrooms of the second floor.
An intercom system allows communication between the two floors, the
front gate, and the additional entry on Buena Vista Terrace from the
basement level.
