This is a wonderful 2 BR / 2 BA house with big windows overlooking a large secluded patio. Everything is top quality: from the comfy beds to the great shower, to the nice kitchen, to the secluded outdoor gas fireplace with lava rocks. A fine front-yard patio dining set was a great place to breakfast and admire the lovely front yard. The neighborhood is nice and quiet yet only a block from the main drag Avenida de la Playa and a few short blocks to the fantastic La Jolla Shores beach and park. We had our own spot in the garage with a door controller. We had a great time and would love to come back!
