House overview

Darling, renovated Folk Victorian just west of downtown San Antonio!

This historic Collins Gardens grand dame offers three bedrooms and two baths on a spacious lot with a perfect mix of old and new. Watch the world go by from your large covered front porch!

Step into a high ceiling, open floor plan awash with tons of natural light through extra tall windows. This one awes with both old world charm and all the modern updates you would ever want.

The previous seller claimed the home was built in the late 1800s and moved to this location in the 1920s, and it feels like it with all her character, including 11 foot ceilings.

The foyer sets the stage for an open living, dining and kitchen space. Chefs will love the generous granite counters, custom backsplash, new appliances, and even a walk-in pantry. There is plenty of room in the kitchen to add a mobile island or eat-in kitchen table, if you need more space after you fit a large dining table in the 13 by 13 dining space itself.

The master suite is separate with a huge bathroom with walk-in, tiled shower, and large walk-in closet.
Both secondary bedrooms, especially large for this era home, are located on either side of the foyer and share the guest bath.
Step through the living room to your backyard complete with massive covered porch, perfect for entertaining. A 20 by 10 storage shed could easily be converted into a workshop.

All the big-ticket items can be checked off your to-do list with a new roof, new pier and beam foundation, and new electrical. All this in a quaint neighborhood, with streets draped with oaks and pecan trees, just a hop and skip from Southtown, the Riverwalk and Downtown San Antonio — just a mile from I-37/I-10 and I-90 for an easy commute around town.
