About this property

Explore the River Walk from Artsy Designer Retro Chic Home

Summary:
Step into a perfectly polished home with white walls and added color accents for appeal. The combination of mid-century modern furnishings and local decorative art add to the light, airy and livable feel of the family-friendly house close to the River Walk, Downtown, The Pearl and many local treasures like breweries. Feels like home!

The Space:
Enter this newly built home and marvel at the charming local décor, high ceilings and beautiful spacious rooms! Rest your tired legs on the sofa or armchairs as you watch the flat-screen TV in the living room. Relax on the back terrace and fenced-in lawn, or sit on the front porch and chat with the friendly local neighbors. Talk about the fun plans you have for your San Antonio stay over breakfast at the kitchen island or dining table. Walk to the Dignowity Hill Farmers Market just blocks away, go have a fantastic coffee at Estate, or go to enjoy a delicious meal or a drink at Dignowity Meats. Whip up a tasty snack in the kitchen with new stainless-steel appliances. Rent bikes and go for a ride to Hays Bridge to watch the stunning sunset over the magnificent view. As the day comes to a close, retire to the cozy bedrooms for a night's sleep.

Our location is only 1.4 miles (30 min. Walk) to the Alamodome and minutes to The Alamo, Riverwalk, Henry B. Gonzales Convention Center. The Pearl, The Quarry, San Antonio Zoo, Witte Museum, Children's Museum, McNay Art Museum are also very close by with a quick and cheap Uber/Lyft ride.

The Neighborhood:
San Antonio is known for its mix of Texas tradition and innovation. Enjoy the River Walk lined with restaurants and bars, the Western Art Museum, and the Pearl Brewery Complex. The home is in a residential up-and-coming part of the city, close to everything you and your family will love.

Getting Around:
The house is a 20-30 minute walk, or a 5-minute uber/lyft ride from the convention center, the beautiful Pearl district and downtown San Antonio.

You can rent from our very own B-Cycle station located under the Historic Hays Street Bridge at 730 N Cherry St, just 5 blocks from the house.

Other Things to Note:
The Dignowity Hill neighborhood is currently undergoing a revitalization process, with investments currently reenergizing this historic neighborhood many turn-of-the-century properties have been lovingly restored, while others are patiently waiting for their time.

The housing complex our house is located within is a new investment property and as such, some construction is still on-going.

★ EXTERIOR SECURITY CAMERA ★
This home is equipped with a doorbell camera, driveway camera, backyard camera and a camera on the side of the home that begin to record and monitor when motion is detected. There are no cameras or devices that record or monitor the interior of the home.

Interaction with Guests:
We also own and operate an antique business in Floresville TX and therefore, will not be able to greet you in-person when you arrive or leave but we hope our personal touches placed throughout the home will help you get to know us. A few days before your arrival, we will send you the code to the door, as well as our handy guide filled with local knowledge and tips. We will be available remotely 24/7 should you have any questions, require any assistance or if any issues occur.

Great hideaway from COVID

The property is lovely, feels like you're tucked away from the world - which is good since I was staying there while on evacuation from my overseas assignments due to COVID. Rebecca was very accommodating and ensured I had a comfortable desk chair since I was teleworking everyday.

Nice, clean, modern house. Loved it!!!

The property itself was clean, well-stocked, and modern. No issues with anything not working or broken. The house has built-in security and a parking cover so that gave me piece of mind. Beds were comfortable and we were able to have a group of 7 people with plenty of space to move around. Price was great too - easy drive to downtown SA for stuff to do. Would stay here again.

San Antonio Vacation

This was a fabulous house and location for our vacation. Beds were all comfortable and bathrooms were very nice. We could Have used a few more hand towels for kitchen and half bath. The only other small issue was not enough room for family to play board games or have breakfast together. The dining table was small and only sat 4 but other than that it was perfect. We would definitely recommend this house.

Quality Home within walking distance of a few San Antonio gems

This home was clean and brightly decorated with all the basic amenities needed to enjoy your stay in San Antonio. Although just with my sisters for our annual sisters weekend (without kids), the home is well suited for families too with all the basic details (crib mattress, high chair, fenced yard, and easy parking). The outdoor space is small but just what we needed to enjoy a sunny breakfast. The home is walkable to the Hayes St. Bridge, coffee, and a few great outdoor breweries/bars, and a short drive downtown for all the highlights.

Great House!

The only complaint would be, there are train tracks close to the house so you can hear the trains as they go by. However, there are white noise machines in each bedroom which help a lot. Overall we had a great experience,the house was nice and clean, and the owner was great to answer any questions and help in anyway she could.

Beautiful home and great comfortable stay

Came down to San Antonio for a basic military training graduation with 5 of us in the family. Each person was in awe of how clean this home was. Everyone was comfortable and had plenty of space. Could have had 3-4 more people stay here very comfortably. Owners were very accommodating and responsive. This is a great home and we will come back in a heart beat. Very close to everything we needed. From shopping to Lackland Air Force Base to downtown. The most we had to travel was 20-25 minutes. Great location.

Newer home in location close to Pearl and Alamo

When we arrived late at night, we wondered about the neighborhood, it was perfectly fine and close to downtown, highway and the Pearl district. Home is well maintained and our three teenage boys enjoyed it. We cooked meals there as well as went out to eat during our Friday-Thursday spring break stay. Owners reached out midweek to make sure all was good. The only real downside are the train whistles that happen in the night. After a couple days we got used to them, but they depending on which rail line, the light sleepers in the group were awakened by the trains.

Great home, false advertising

PROS -Home is very well-appointed, especially in the kitchen. Feels newly built or recently renovated with all of the comforts of home. The home is part of a complex, and it's a quiet little community. -Beautifully decorated, including local San Antonio touches and Halloween decorations. -Door code is the last 4 of your phone number, so you can't forget it! Loved having the alarm, too. -Beds were high quality. We slept so well! Plenty of towels and blankets. -Kid friendly with the high chair, white noise machines, outlet covers and crib- even an extra baby blanket. The closet in the master bedroom could easily be used as a nursery because there is an air vent in there! CONS 1.) Perhaps the most upsetting con was an unexpected "extra guest" fee of $40. The listing states "Sleeps 8" and we brought 7 guests. I attempted to resolve this with the host, but was told that since the home only has 6 beds, our 7th guest prompted the fee for "extra cleaning and linens." We only slept in the 6 provided beds, and did not use the air mattress or the sheets for it, so the fee seems unwarranted. This was not advertised on the property listing, so I wasn't aware of it until I was in the booking process. Since we had settled on this lovely property in collaboration with another family, it was too late to start the home search over again. 2.) The upstairs shower is clogged. When taking a shower, we were ankle-deep in our own dirty water. 3.) The AC being on a fixed schedule didn't work for us. Our toddler coughed all night both nights because the upstairs bedrooms weren't cool enough. 4.) The check in and check out procedures were not clear. I had to message the host to request check in procedures the day prior, even though the listing states they would be sent automatically. When we received them, the information was cut and pasted multiple times, but bits of information were included and other info left out of different versions. I had to read through all 4 copies to make sure I hadn't missed anything. Check out directions were also unclear. In one set of directions, it said 10 am, and in another, it said 11. OVERALL If the host would change the description to "Sleeps 6" and add a disclaimer in the description regarding the additional fee for 7 or 8 guests, I would love to stay here again. However, since the host refuses to accurately list the home, as a fellow STR owner myself, I can't support those types of business practices. It's a shame, really.

Great Place!

Came in to celebrate our son's AirForce basic training graduation. So pleased with townhouse! Decorated so cute and was very spacious. Loved that kids' rooms were upstairs. When it was bedtime for our granddaughter, we could still enjoy our time downstairs. Beds were great, plenty of towels etc and grateful for carport parking. Great place for the whole family. Close to downtown, Pearl district and even got personal restaurant recommendation from Ana Rebeca and whole family loved it! Easy access and AnaRebeca responded quickly to all our questions.
