Charming Coastal Studio Loft

West Indies Plantation style upstairs studio cottage just seven minutes from beaches and about 30+ minutes from SD airport! Sitting deeply off a quiet residential street, you will enjoy the light-filled, peaceful, quiet ambiance with your own personal entry and nearby parking spot. Currently a minimum stay of a month (29 nights) is required by the City of Carlsbad. Also close to restaurants, public transport, great shopping, organic markets, nightlife and parks. The space My husband and I are a designer/ builder team and love houses, architecture, design, colors, etc.! We have enjoyed living in our lovingly and personally designed and built home for 13 years, which is your view from the French doors and deck balcony. (Currently, we are living next door in our just completed new home, so we are accessible should you need us for anything.) This lovely space is separate but overlooks the front of the main home and property. Currently a small quiet family is living there and because the loft balcony overlooks the front of the main home and driveway, you may sometimes see them coming and going. We do love animals, but unfortunately have a strict no pet policy in order to keep your space allergy free. We have traveled frequently ourselves and enjoy staying at places with interesting and unique architecture and enjoy meeting new people. We also prefer our accommodations to be very clean with nice, comfy beds. A small kitchen with basic cooking amenities allows you to prepare simple meals if you wish. We have also provided you with a coffee maker, microwave, 2-burner electric cooktop, toaster, blender, and small portable oven. If you let us know, we can also provide you with beach chairs, beach towels and an umbrella for the beach. These are just a few of the reasons, besides the gorgeous weather, we think you'll love staying at our place! Other things to note Below the studio, there is another separate small rental apartment with the kitchen/living below your studio space, but the bedroom is off to the side and not below you.
