Just north of downtown San Antonio, in the Monte Vista Historic District, Grand Arbor is a fully-renovated 125 year old home. Completed in 2026, the house is blocks from Trinity University, UIW, as well as Brackenridge and San Pedro parks. 12 mins to Frost Bank Center Walk to nearby restaurants, and enjoy short rides to the Pearl and downtown, both just over a mile away. Two miles to I-10, and one mile to 281, Grand Arbor provides easy access to the airport, shopping & entertainment.
Originally constructed in 1900, this French-style cottage was extensively renovated in 2025 & is now a neighborhood standout. The home offers new vaulted ceilings in the living and 'parlor' spaces, and coffered ceilings in the dining room. The kitchen is equipped with high-end Monogram/GE appliances including a gas stove, microwave, and dishwasher. Dishes, utensils and cookware fill the cabinets. The deep, farm-styled sink makes clean up quick and easy. In addition to being fully sound and weather insulated, the new central air & heat was installed last fall.
The two bedrooms provide space for four. The primary bedroom with king-sized bed and spacious bathroom has a smart tv, luggage stand, variable speed fan, charging station and alarm clock. A walk in shower and soaking tub enhance the beautifully tiled bathroom. Four large windows allow light to fill the spacious feel of the primary bath and bedroom.
The second bedroom has a bay window, queen bed, dresser, chandelier, luggage stand, charging station and alarm clock.

An off-street, front driveway and a large, gravel backyard space are available for parking.
The beautiful oak tree has been estimated to be over 300 years old and provides lots of shade while enjoying the backyard. Don't forget happy hour or a late night pizza and a cocktail from the beautiful bar across the street -at ever so popular Barbaro; and Lilly's Cookies is right next door. Our neighborhood is known for being walk-able and has countless other restaurants and businesses nearby. A nice stroll through the Monte Vista section of San Antonio will take you past homes and mansions constructed for cattle and oil barons dating back to the late 1800's.
