It’s not every day that a house goes up for sale in the highly desirable and supremely funky neighborhood of River Road.
And this one — listed at $875,000 after a $75,000 price drop — is in a league of its own.
Built in 1924, this three-bedroom, two-bath bungalow features hardwood floors, charmingly artsy architectural details, multiple fireplaces and inviting spaces bathed in abundant natural light.
Throughout the 2,158-square-foot house, striking wood-paneled ceilings and walls create a rich and earthy ambiance, echoing the aesthetic for which the neighborhood is known.
Outside, this lush and warm earthiness continues with a wood-slatted ceiling over the property’s covered patio. The space offers a restful spot to look out onto the lush greenery of the backyard, which is bursting with exotic plants that make it feel like a rainforest paradise.
Nestled in this private jungle is a pool worthy of such a high-class retreat, with tiered steps descending into its refreshing waters.
On the front of the house, stone pathways are shaded by rustic pergolas that invite climbing vines to flourish on a grid of beams overhead.
Clearly, this is a home for someone who loves enjoying San Antonio’s subtropical environment — and enjoying it in style.
