Historic Downtown 1888 House - Winner of Obispo Beautiful Award

Perfectly situated, just two blocks from the historic Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa, this charming 1888 property will immediately make you feel right at home. Winner of an Obispo Beautiful Award, the house has two comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an office, (Additional detached office/studio available at extra cost)

Hardwood floors, tongue and groove ceilings, and many antiques adorn the house and give it a special old-world ambiance.
