UrbanLiving Inside410 - The original Idaho House was built for the 1904 St. Louis Worlds Fair and was purchased by Jay E. Adams, shipped by freight train, and then taken by mule-drawn wagon to Beacon Hill in San Antonio. This home remained Jay Adams' residence for years. Eventually, the structure underwent immense "surgery" and was split into 2 single-family homes accomplished by his son, Carleton, the founder of Adams and Adams Firm. More recently, the majority of the plumbing, electrical, appliances, lighting, and cabinets were replaced and modernized in 2015. The sun filled living room has double doors, beautiful muntin bar wavy glass windows, hardwood floors, 2 ceiling fans, 2 bench seat with storage, cafe style shutters,10 ft. ceilings, wood burning fireplace, crown molding and a groin vault ceiling. Enter through beautiful glass folding doors into roomy dining room with a Nelson Saucer Bubble pendant and a large built-in banquette bench that connects the kitchen to dining room. The large kitchen has an expansive breakfast bar with a wood counter, custom cabinetry, quartz counters, gas cooking, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting and large windows over sink. The owners retreat has plenty of room for a sitting area with cafe shutters, tiled shower and floating vanity with two sinks & a walk-in closet. Two secondary bedrooms across the back share a modern hall bath tub with subway tile surround and black & white tiled floor. Out back, one can relax on the covered patio for a tranquil evening with friends. The shared drive leads to a recently constructed (2017) carport for 2-car parking and storage shed. This amazing home has a great pedigree with wonderful history. Come see this gem and make it yours! Close to Downtown, The Pearl, and the bustling Blanco shopping area.
