The Coulter House by Gather: Historic San Diego Estate w/ Ocean Views
Built in 1916 by renowned architect Carleton Winslow Sr., The Coulter House is a Mission Revival treasure in San Diego’s Bankers Hill neighborhood. Once a gathering place for the city’s social elite, this six-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath estate now welcomes travelers seeking a rare blend of historic grandeur and modern luxury. With panoramic ocean views from its deck, elegant interiors, and a private courtyard, this home is ideal for families, groups, or anyone longing for a distinctive San Diego stay.
What You’ll Love About The Coulter House
* Historic Mission Revival architecture with exquisite period details
* Six beautifully appointed bedrooms, including a spa-like primary suite
* Upper-level family den with pool table, arcade machine, and wet bar
* Courtyard with pergola dining, BBQ, firepit, and hot tub
* Walkable to Balboa Park and Little Italy, minutes from beaches and the Gaslamp Quarter
Living & Dining
Step inside to soaring ceilings, rich wood accents, and refined décor that echo the home’s heritage. The formal living room doubles as a music room, with a grand piano anchoring the space. Sunlight streams into the adjoining sunroom, while the formal dining room—with seating for eight—sets the stage for memorable gatherings. Multiple lounges, a dedicated office, and cozy nooks offer both relaxation and productivity.
Chef-Ready Kitchen
The expansive kitchen balances vintage charm with modern convenience. Stainless steel appliances, a large island, and an adjacent butler’s pantry make it easy to host dinners or casual breakfasts. A sunny breakfast nook provides the perfect start to the day.
Outdoor Oasis
The private courtyard invites lingering afternoons under the pergola, family BBQs, and starlit evenings around the firepit. A bubbling hot tub, lush landscaping, and multiple patios provide spaces to gather, relax, and enjoy San Diego’s enviable climate. From the upper deck, panoramic views stretch to the Pacific, with sunset cocktails made unforgettable by the ocean breeze.
