About this home
Rich with character, this 1930s gem is nestled beneath a canopy of majestic live oaks on a prominent corner in San Antonio's Monte Vista Historic District. Seamlessly immersed in its natural surroundings yet located in the heart of the city, the home sits adjacent to the gorgeous, park-like campus of Trinity University and overlooks Lang Field-an expansive green space with shaded groves and playing fields. This rare corner lot is densely and rustically landscaped with low-water, low-maintenance plantings, creating a peacefully hidden nature retreat that feels far removed from the bustle-yet it's just minutes from Fort Sam Houston, the Pearl District, Brackenridge Park, Olmos Basin, the University of the Incarnate Word, and downtown. With four bedrooms-plus a versatile third-floor guest suite or office-the home offers flexibility for family life, guests, and remote work. The sunken den is pre-wired for surround sound and projector TV, ideal for a home cinema. Covered porches and an upstairs balcony offer intimate views into the surrounding tree canopy, with sightlines extending to the downtown skyline. The architect-led renovation preserved the home's historic integrity while introducing modern comforts: a renovated kitchen with Bosch appliances and gas range, a water softener, and an instant hot water heater. The result is a home that feels timeless, elegant, and supremely livable. Residents enjoy walkable access to Landa Library and Trinity University's Olympic swimming pool (available via Trinity Outdoor Club membership), as well as the university's world-class public lectures, performances, and cultural events right across the street. This is not just a house-it's a sanctuary of nature, architecture, and urban convenience, waiting to welcome you home.
