The north-of-downtown River Road Historic District is prized for its central location, its proximity to the San Antonio River and its secluded, natural feel. Suffice to say, houses don’t open up there often.
However, a three-bedroom, four-bath bungalow was just listed for $740,000 in the quirky enclave, and it’s only been on the market for four days as of press time.
Built in 1940, the 1,900-square-foot residence boasts classic features such as a Craftsman-style exterior, built-in glass-front cabinets, a tiled fireplace and what the sales listing refers to as “gleaming wood floors.”
Despite the abundance or historic features, the kitchen is thoroughly updated, and its dual islands, high-end appliances, chilled wine rack and other accessories seem suited to the dedicated home cook and entertainer.
A screened in back patio houses a hot tub, while the native-landscaped backyard features a child’s playhouse, a footbridge and wooden swing built for two.
