We are a family of four who found Norman’s place to be perfect for our two energetic boys. The house is both historically intact and modern in decor as well as amenities. The sitting area is perfect for play, as well as chess or homework. The dinner area lends beautiful views of the sunrise and sunset that are accompanied by the songs of the birds in the garden. The garden is an oasis of plants and animals, squirrels and birds mostly. The fountains are calming, and the variety of plants offer visually appealing textures. They have a table space for dinner, a space for relaxing, and plenty of yard for kids to enjoy along with a little area of toys set up. The house is between two shopping streets and two stores. You can walk to both or enjoy bus or bike/scooter (lime bike) to any location. It is an easy bus ride to Balboa Park and a quick ride to any place. We enjoyed every moment of our visit and would love to stay again. This home is perfect and it’s location is in just the right place.
