Nestled in the heart of Alamo Heights on a beautiful street, this delightful 1920's Craftsman-style bungalow offers timeless charm! A welcoming covered front porch sets the tone for this inviting home, where original long-leaf pine floors, abundant natural light, and high ceilings showcase its architectural character. The spacious, open-concept living and dining area offers a warm and airy atmosphere, while the two bedrooms share a spacious vintage-inspired bath featuring a classic clawfoot tub and pedestal sink. The kitchen exudes a nostalgic ambiance with a gas stove, refrigerator, a wall of cabinets for ample storage, and space for a high-top breakfast table. An adjacent enclosed back porch provides a convenient laundry area with washer/dryer connections. Recent updates include a freshly painted interior, new HVAC system (12/2024), new plumbing under house (2022), including a new sewer line to the street. A one-car detached garage and separate storage shed complete the property. Ideally located within walking distance to Cambridge Elementary, Central Market, Alamo Heights Swimming Pool, baseball fields, a dog park, and scenic nature trails, this home offers an unbeatable lifestyle, at an affordable price, in a highly sought-after neighborhood.
