About This Home
As of February 2013Iconic San Diego views from the perfect perch on the high side of the street in La Playa. From the street, the house is screened from view by a grove of Japanese pine trees. Walk up the slate and stone staircase, past the iron gate, and up to the house. Breathe in the view. Known as the Charles Small artist house and pavilion. This floor plan is single level but zoning allows 30-ft height. Unbelievable potential here!

The original owner Charles Small spent his entire business career as Manager of the old Bishop Cracker Company, maker of biscuits, cookie & candy, located at Columbia and Market Streets downtown, before it was purchased by a national firm. Retired in 1936, Small turned to painting as a hobby and studied under the late Maurice Braun. He designed and built the house for his retirement. His paintings of San Diego landscapes have been exhibited in the Spanish Village Art Center, and the Civic Center. Member of the San Diego Art Institute and the Southwestern Art Club. The cottage was originally designed as a pavilion with outdoor fireplace, where Small could paint comfortably outdoors and be warmed by the fire. Later converted as a guest house/cottage, it is complete with bathroom and kitchenette. House sq.ftg is 1550 with 2 bdrms & 2 baths and cottage is 300 s.f. with...
