Step into a home where timeless character and thoughtful updates come together. Built in 1922, this distinctive two-bedroom, one-bath home offers the charm, craftsmanship, and unique architectural details that make historic homes so special. From its inviting living spaces and vaulted ceilings to its beautiful hardwood floors and carefully updated kitchen and bathroom, this home offers a character all its own-something you simply don't find in many modern homes. As you enter, you'll discover a welcoming main living area highlighted by vaulted ceilings and a fireplace that creates a warm focal point for the room. The open feel of the living and dining areas provides a comfortable flow for everyday living, entertaining guests, or enjoying a quiet evening at home. Throughout much of the house, hardwood floors add warmth and character, complementing the distinctive details that reflect the home's nearly century-old history. Moving into the kitchen, you'll find a refreshed space that blends everyday functionality with timeless style. The seller completed a cosmetic renovation featuring quartz countertops, a deep farmhouse sink, brass fixtures, a new backsplash, and ceramic tile flooring. A new refrigerator and stove complete the space, creating a kitchen that feels fresh and inviting while remaining in keeping with the home's character. The full bathroom has also been thoughtfully updated, featuring new tile, flooring, vanities, a toilet, and brass fixtures. The plumbing configuration was redesigned to accommodate two vanities, providing additional convenience and functionality while making the most of the available space. Beyond the visible updates, this home has benefited from substantial improvements to important systems and infrastructure. In summer 2021, the approximately 100-year-old plumbing was replaced with PEX piping by Beyer Boys. The home's original knob-and-tube electrical wiring was replaced with updated wiring throughout, two-prong outlets were replaced, GFCI protection was added in wet areas, and an indoor electrical breaker panel was installed by a local electrician. Comfort and efficiency were further addressed with a new American Standard central air conditioning system, a new gas unit installed in the attic, and additional attic insulation, with HVAC work completed by Aramendia. The yard was regraded to improve drainage and help reduce moisture-related concerns, and a new privacy fence was installed around the property's perimeter. Additional features include new fire detectors throughout the home and four hardwired Ring security cameras around the property. The home is also wired for Google Fiber, offering the potential for high-speed internet connectivity. For those who appreciate historic details, six of the home's 20 windows have been carefully restored to their original double-hung configuration. These restored windows preserve an element of the home's original character while allowing for natural ventilation and airflow. With two bedrooms, one full bathroom, inviting living and dining spaces, vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and a fireplace, this home offers a wonderful combination of historic personality and meaningful modern updates. Whether you're drawn to the distinctive craftsmanship of an older home, the charm of its architectural details, or the practical improvements already completed, 1705 W Summit Ave is an opportunity to own a piece of San Antonio's history with updates designed for today's living. A home with a story, character you can't recreate, and thoughtful improvements that help bring its next chapter to life.
