The beach is steps away and offers large white sandy beaches, great surfing (long or short board), and an 2.5 mile boardwalk for walks or bicycling. We have wonderful neighbors and no "party houses" adjacent to us. 29th Street is one of a handful of double wide streets with parking on both sides.

Maximum: (L) 190 in (H) 78", (W) 73" Street parking on 29th St is not metered but can be competitive so having the garage option is recommended. The Balboa Peninsula is very walk able and unless you are planning day trips, ride sharing to the home is a popular alternative. Grocery, every class of restaurant and bar, bicycle and sporting good rentals, boat rentals and charters are all within walking distance. Highly walkable location. Many guests do not bring a car. Bus stop at the end of the block and super easy Lyft and Uber access. The home is equipped with security cameras in the back alley and on the front sidewalk. Owners live adjacent so property is very clean and well maintained. This is not a party house and due to it's small size, occupancy including visitors is limited to 6 persons.
