This charming, Ashbury Street apartment is on the second floor overlooking a lovely garden. (A second bedroom is available on request). Located 40 feet from the corner of Haight and Ashbury, this Victorian flat is a quiet refuge within the center of the most colorful neighborhood in the world. No need for a car as two frequent bus lines, one block away, take you anywhere you want to go.
The flat is attractively furnished with traditional furniture, has a living room with a woodburning fireplace, bedroom with a queen-size bed and marble washstand. There is a sit-down kitchen with stove, microwave, dishwasher, and full-size refrigerator. The bathroom has a tub with shower and the service porch has a washer and dryer.

The apartment has books, maps, guidebooks, and friendly owners (one native San Franciscan) who are willing to share all they know about enjoying this city and its surrounding counties. Macintosh G4 computer with high speed internet access included.
There is a family-run market one-half block away with wonderful organic fruits and vegetables as well as a selection of Niman Ranch meats. Haight Street itself has a collection of one-of-a-kind shops drawing a wide spectrum of international visitors. There are interesting bars, restaurants, a world-class brew pub and even a repertory movie house, all within three blocks. A bit farther (approximately a mile) is the fabulous De Young Museum, just opened in October, along with all the joys of Golden Gate Park.
Taxi cabs abound on Haight Street, just walk out the door. But don’t miss the experience of riding the buses. A single bus ride will take you into the heart of the Castro District as well as to all the cultural and entertainment offerings that this world-class city has to offer: theatre, opera, symphony, clubs and an infinite selection of fine restaurants.
