About this home

Nestled in the heart of prestigious Alamo Heights, this exquisitely renovated 1926 estate seamlessly blends historic character with elevated modern luxury. Reimagined in 2025, the 3276 sq ft residence offers 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and 1/2 bath on the 0.269-acre lot, with all bedrooms thoughtfully positioned on the primary floor for refined single-level living. A striking steel front entry opens to an expansive open-concept design featuring European white oak floors, a limestone fireplace, and two spacious living areas complemented by a formal dining room. The chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, appointed with Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, natural white oak cabinetry, a handmade reclaimed custom vent hood, imported antique galvanized island lighting from France, and premium Forno Alta Qualita appliances including a 60" refrigerator/freezer and 48" gas range. The primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath finished in travertine, while secondary baths showcase limestone tile and Taj Mahal quartzite surfaces. Downstairs, Saltillo tile flooring leads to a full bath with infrared sauna, a grand room with a kitchenette, wine fridge and deep well sink, and a hidden passageway to a private flex space ideal for a media lounge, cocktail retreat, or wine cellar. Modern infrastructure includes fully replaced electrical and plumbing systems, dual zone HVAC (gas and electric), low-voltage LED lighting throughout, a 75-gallon gas water heater, metal roof, and pier-and-beam foundation. Outdoor living is equally captivating with a wraparound balcony and a detached carport. A rare opportunity to own a masterfully restored architectural gem in one of San Antonio's most coveted neighborhoods.
