I do not advertise on Craigslist.

Please note that we have a five night minimum on all stays.

We have a lower flat in the Noe Valley neighborhood. It's a wonderful place for couples, singles & families. The streets are lined with Victorian houses, the area is safe, quiet & clean. Our flat is very comfortable and easy to live in. There are 2 bedrooms with queen size beds as well as a daybed with trundle for additional sleeping for 2 persons. All utilities are included as well as digital cable with HBO, Showtime Cinemax, Encore & Starz to be viewed on the 37' flat panel TV.

We are child friendly: Casa de Julia welcomes children. We provide children's dishes, cups and utensils and can provide a crib and or booster chair free of charge just let us know what you need. The flat is not overly decorated and does not have fragile items down low, which makes it easy when watching over small children who like to get in to everything. ;)

If your dates are not available at Casa de Julia please consider our 2nd floor flat Casa Feliz sleeps 4 and is not suitable for small mobile children or persons with mobility problems-there are 18 stairs that lead up the flat and could make it difficult for little ones or persons with joint, back or other mobility problems..

About Wendy Spackman

My grandmother and her husband purchased this house in the 1940's, my mother grew up in the flat and I was born her in the 60's. My mother and I lived upstairs while my grandmother, Julia, lived in the downstairs unit. The flat is name in her honor Casa de Julia.

Wendy Spackman purchased this apartment in 1940
Why Wendy Spackman chose San Francisco

The house has been in my family for more than 60 years.

What makes this apartment unique

The neighborhood is phenomenal, our little micro climate in Noe Valley insures that if there is sun to be had we will get it! Noe Valley is the most laid back area of San Francisco where you can get a real local vibe without feeling unsafe or being in a area that is too stuffy. Noe Valley would have been the place that Goldilocks chose, because it's 'just right'. :)

Great place, great area and Wendy was very helpful

5 of 5
Submitted: February 10, 2010 Stayed: January 2010
We stayed here for two weeks and the place really felt like home.

The house is in great condition and has everything you need to keep a family running. The kitchen has all the things you might need and the laundry is a great help if you have kids.

The area is really nice. You are close to the 24th street shops and a Whole Foods, great delivery pizza and coffee at Bernie's. It is also really close to transport.

The wireless internet and tv is great. From the back yard you have a nice view down the hill of the rest of Noe. We slept 6 (2 young children and 4 adults) comfortably.

We would stay here again and again. Wendy was very accommodating and responsive to all our needs and inquiries.

Condo in a nice neighborhood of Noe Valley, very very well equipped, we wanted for nothing. Near the public transport and grocery. No need for a car. We discovered the city with four kids and the grandmother. Golden Gate Park, Muir Woods, Marin headlands (Nike missile), downtown San Francisco, embarcado pier 39 and many of quarties San Francisco. Thank you Casa De Julia

Mi familia y yo estuvimos en Casa de Julia y tuvimos unos días muy agradables. Es un sitio que ofrece todas las comodidades que se necesitan para pasar una buena estancia en San Francisco.
Para la época de frio, el apartamento es cálido, lo que es muy bueno para llegar y tomarse un chocolate caliente después de haber estado paseando.
Wendy es una persona muy atenta y amable y estuvo siempre pendiente de todo lo necesario para nuestra llegada.

Realmente volveríamos a Casa de Julia.

Very Comfortable Home

I have stayed at Casa de Julia several times and I have always been delighted.

The flat is comfortable and well appointed, the kitchen is thoughtfully stocked with pots, pans and dishes, and the queen-sized beds are really nice and cozy.

The neighborhood is quiet and the lovely street is not bad for parking...though it IS San Francisco and you've got to pay attention to the signs. The walk down to 24th Street is pleasant and there you can shop at Whole Food, get bagels or pastries for breakfast, browse interesting businesses and eat at some great restaurants.

The J Church Muni line is located at 24th and Church Street, so for $2 (bring dollars or exact change) it is easy to get downtown or to the Embarcadero, (take the transfer!).

Staying in Noe Valley gives you the real San Francisco...not the congested ares that tourists mostly visit. The houses in the neighborhood are beautiful. Though hilly, it is a good walk 20 minute to Castro Street, or down to Valencia and the Mission...or you can drive there easily.
I also took an 8-year old to Dolores Park playground and kitty-corner for a Bi-Rite salted caramel ice cream cone...nice memories.

I've used this VRBO for business visits and with friends and family...it is a bonus that the dining room table is large enough for dinners and also for working on projects.

The host is available quickly by email...and has always been friendly and helpful.

All and all, a great place to be your San Francisco home base.
