Peaceful Retreat, central location can’t be beat!
Looking for a quiet little place to get away and enjoy all that the Alamo City has to offer? Seeking a romantic retreat, family vacay or a peaceful place to work from home? This charming 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has what you’re looking for!
Right in the heart of San Antonio, this delightful home found in the Castle Hills Forest subdivision, is the perfect retreat for couples, small families and professionals, alike.
If first impressions truly serve as an indication of what’s to come, the striking curb appeal of this beautifully landscaped, 2-story home is a good sign. The manicured yard and entry are accented by stunning large royal blue ceramic planters, to complement the eye-catching blue door with a colorful wreath that give a taste of the vivid design elements inside.
As you enter this fabulous 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath home, you’ll find contemporary, rustic-chic décor and furnishings that create an inviting space for all to enjoy. The bright natural light filtering in makes the blues, oranges and touches of greenery throughout the downstairs, really stand out.
Immediately to the right of the entryway is a fantastic multi-use space anchored by an ultracozy chair-and-a-half that is sure to draw you in. Lounge in stylish comfort when you curl up in this oversized chair for ultimate chill vibes. This is THE spot to read, scroll your socials, meditate, chill (or even work), to your heart’s content.
Just across, to the left of the entryway is the private and spacious primary bedroom—a supreme sanctuary for rest and rejuvenation. The continued blues and corals with touches of gold and green and pops of crisp white, give this carefully curated space a sense of ease for maximum relaxation.
Featuring a lavish queen bed, you’re sure to drift off into the dreamiest, restful sleep. Complete with an en-suite bathroom and access to a private patio, you’re set up for a full spa-like retreat. You’ll feel like you’re at your very own café when you take your morning coffee, or a soothing chamomile tea seated at the bistro table just outside the sliding glass door.
Every space in this lovely home has something to offer in the way of enjoyment. Moving through to the main communal spaces, you’ll love making the most of the bright and open floor plan perfect for entertaining, playing games with friends or preparing and enjoying a homecooked meal.
As you enter the living space you’re met with an impressive floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, the focal point of the room. The best spot to spend time with family and friends, between a comfy couch, chair and floor pillows, there’s plenty of room for everyone to hang out. Grab a soft pillow or throw blanket to snuggle up with and get some Netflix going (or binge your favorite shows or movies on any of the popular streaming options). Or you can let your competitive side come out, spreading out a board game on the coffee table. Entertaining guests? Craft your cocktails and/or mocktails at the fabulous little “cocktail corner,” bar area just off to the side of the sliding glass door.
With the living room seamlessly flowing into the kitchen and dining areas, no matter where you’re hanging out, drinking or eating, the super open floor plan makes every spot in the common areas feel accessible and connected. You can have some real fun cooking in the spacious, fully equipped and updated kitchen, complete with stainless appliances. And while you’re at the preparation and creation, don’t let your inner barista go unfulfilled. Be sure to take advantage of the fully stocked coffee station.
Dine in style at the wood and stone table (seating 4) or utilize this stunning and sturdy surface as your makeshift office space. You can post up practically anywhere in this home to work remotely, and successfully be productive and creative. The solid high-speed Internet connection allows you to confidently join video calls without fear of dropping.
If you’re feeling like you can breathe easier in this open area of the home, it’s because you can. While the floor plan along with the modern, uncluttered design contribute to this fresh, airy feeling, the state-of-the-art air purifier is what helps to ensure optimal indoor air quality for our guests.
Just beyond the kitchen is the utility room, fitted with a high-capacity washer and dryer for all your laundering needs. Across that hall you can find a half bath for convenient first-floor use.
Making your way upstairs, you can find restful refuge in either of the secondary bedrooms. Both tasteful spaces feature premium mattress beds and are suited for all ages. The first upstairs bedroom, boasting a plush queen bed, offers soothing coral/peachy tones and a charming farmhouse design. The second bedroom showcases 2 comfy twin beds with beautifully coordinating, blue and coral bedding. As the decorative “Sweet Dreams” sign aptly instructs, when bedtime comes, the soft linens and peaceful space will have you setting off for adventures in dreamland.
And for the “piés de rèsistance” of this beautiful home, you will want to explore the backyard area where you will find an enchanting, secluded oasis. Take a seat in one of the deep blue, ultra-loungy Adirondack chairs, kick up your feet and unwind from the day. Enjoy a glass of wine (hot tea, or bev of choice), close your eyes and feel transported as you revel in the serenity of the space. Find your Zen in this spacious yard, shaded by a majestic mature oak.
Soak in the sights, sensations and sounds of the warm sun peering through the oak’s canopy, a breeze rustling the leaves, birds chirping and become totally entranced by the tones of the windchime. The full-sensory experience of this beautiful and private space is enhanced in the evenings by the glow of party lights strung across the yard. We guarantee you will be looking for any excuse to spend time in this spectacular outdoor space.
Another special feature of this home is its proximity to a wonderful playground and park just one house down! Just a short 1–2-minute walk away, you have access to two tennis courts, two basketball hoops (basketball at the house, for guest use), multiple playscapes, big kid and baby swings, several benches and lots of grassy cover. It’s a great place to have the kiddos burn off some energy or to enjoy a picnic.
Minutes from the Alon Market and only a short drive from downtown, the Alamo, River Walk, the Pearl District, the Quarry, convention centers, universities, the San Antonio Zoo, museums as well as the Medical Center and world-class shopping at La Cantera and the RIM—its central location truly makes this the perfect home-away-from-home during your visit to this vibrant city. Guests are required to sign a rental agreement and submit to a 3rd party screening.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

needs work
Property did not meet expectations. Lock on door was difficult and spotty. Garage door opener had a low batterly warning which beeped constantly and could be heard throughout bottom floor. We tried to get it turned off but were unsuccessful. Sinks were dirty. Hole in bathroom door which is filled in with toilet paper. Toilet near kitchen sticks/runs/overflows if you are not careful.
