Turnkey 1928 Tobin Hill bungalow - thoroughly renovated primary residence or income-ready investment property and minutes from the Pearl and downtown San Antonio. 3 bed / 2 bath, ~1,424 sq ft on an ~8,400 sq ft RM-4 lot with infill upside. Historic charm, no historic zoning. High ceilings and six foot wood windows add to the open layout and open spacious feel. Updates include a 2020 metal roof, updated water heater and two split units that work independently from the HVAC system. The original hardwoods were refinished along with a rebuilt kitchen with granite, custom cabinets, and stainless appliances, and two fully renovated baths. The interior may welcome fresh paint to suit your taste - but the costly items are behind you. A recent-model Samsung washer and dryer, outdoor TV, and patio furnishings all convey. Location does the rest. It's an unbeatable central address for a primary homeowner - and built-in rental demand for an investor. Two ways to win: this ~8,400 sq ft RM-4 lot permits single-, two-, and multi-family use, with a renovated, income-ready house already on it. It generates revenue today while you decide whether the site pencils as a future two- or three-unit infill build. It may support long-term leasing, furnished mid-term housing, and short-term rental - the latter subject to City approval and a Type 2 permit for the block face. Historic charm without the restrictions, no mandatory HOA, and no deferred maintenance to inherit. Schedule your showing today.
