San Antonio Current StaffA charming cottage nearly a century old is now for sale in Monte Vista. Built in 1928 and priced at $690,000, the home has plenty of historic charm throughout.
From the outside, the 2,970-square-foot structure looks like a quaint, green gingerbread house. Upon entry, guests are greeted by a large, red living room with a fireplace and an arched doorway leading to the formal dining room. Another doorway leads to a smaller family room designed for TV watching more than entertaining.
Throughout the living and dining areas of this four-bedroom, three-bath home original hardwood floors have been refinished and restored to their former glory while cove ceilings further retain the original character. The nearby kitchen is galley-style but large nonetheless. It also has recently been updated with new cabinets along with Travertine marble flooring and countertops.
The primary bedroom is on the main level and includes its own bath. The secondary bedrooms are located up the stairs from the formal dining room. One of the most interesting of those bedrooms has wood-paneled, angular ceilings showing off the underside of the steep roof.This home is listed byEvery house has a story, and our mission is to tell San Antonio’s story through the lens of our community's historic and colorful homes.
