About this property

1920s Bungalow Expertly Renovated w/ MidCentury Modern Flair

Step into a thoughtfully renovated 1920s bungalow where timeless charm meets modern design. This North Park retreat has been carefully curated for comfort, style, and ease — perfect for couples, friends, or small families looking to explore San Diego from a central, walkable location. SD TOT 638534

Inside, you’ll find an inviting living space with custom built-ins, a dedicated work area, and a big blue sofa perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. The dining nook features custom seating and a striking Sputnik chandelier, while the all-new kitchen is fully equipped and designed to impress. French doors open to your private backyard oasis — complete with a spacious deck, serene fountain, al fresco dining, and a charming swing.

Both bedrooms are equally comfortable, featuring blackout shades, ceiling fans, mini-split heat and AC, and designer furnishings. Guests frequently praise the home’s cleanliness, cozy atmosphere, and thoughtful extras that make them feel right at home.

Located in a quiet, safe neighborhood, the bungalow is within walking distance of some of North Park and South Park’s best restaurants, coffee shops, and markets. Downtown, Balboa Park, and San Diego’s most popular attractions are just a short drive or rideshare away.

Please take a moment to review the House Rules before booking.
If you will need bedding for the sofa, please let us know in advance so we can prepare it for you.

Families: While Purple Panache is glad to host families, please note the space was not designed with children in mind and has no specific child-safety equipment. The children who have stayed most successfully have been infants under constant supervision or mature tweens and teens past the “stick a fork into a socket” stage.

Pets: We do not charge a pet fee — but pets must be disclosed when booking. Undisclosed pets will incur a $100 fee. To keep our pet-friendly policy free for all guests, we ask that you:

Clean up after your pet inside and outside.
Use provided blankets on furniture if pets are allowed up.
Contact us for instructions if an accident occurs on carpets or upholstery.

If our cleaners must address these issues for you, the following fees apply:
Dog waste in the yard: $50
Excessive pet hair: $50

Security: For your safety, there are four exterior cameras mounted on the roof to monitor property access: two at the front (entry, driveway, sidewalk), one on the south side yard (facing the gate), and one on the north side yard (non-accessible space). There are no interior cameras and none facing the backyard. The home is equipped with a Yale Smart Lock.
Please do not tamper with the cameras or modem.

About the host

Hosted by Dean Burrows

Host profile image
Hi! My name is Dean Burrows. I've been an independent real estate sales broker (Turn Key Real Estate) in San Diego for about 30 years. I've also managed rental properties for decades, and was an all 5 star "Super Host" on a platform that made me crazy, and rhymes with ErrorBnB. So happy to be with the HomeAway family. I'm a home remodel, and furniture consignment store, junkie. And love to entertain. So, hosting vacation rentals is right up my alley.

Why they chose this property

Rarely does one get the opportunity to enjoy a meticulously remodeled property, designed with the traveler in mind. A perfect blend of 1920's architecture with a Mid Century Modern flair. In America's Finest City's most popular Hipster neighborhoods - North Park and South Park.

My other property is VRBO1551179, a North Park fountain courtyard studio with lots and lots of 5 star ratings - about 6 blocks from The Purple Panache.

What makes this property unique

Location. Location. Location.

Close enough to walk to everything, but just far enough away to avoid the noise and parking issues.

And the house and garden are beyond awesome.

Premier Host

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
