Property Description
261 E Fair Oaks Pl is a charming 4-bed, 4.5-bath home in Alamo Heights, offering 2,922 sq. ft. of practical living space complemented by thoughtful updates. Recent improvements include a new A/C (2024), HVAC (2023), insulation, fresh paint, and lush sod, ensuring modern comfort while preserving the home's distinctive character. The color palette draws inspiration from the earthy tones of San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, infusing the space with warmth and vibrancy. These rich hues offer a welcome departure from typical white or cream walls, adding a unique charm and personality that makes the home truly stand out. The living room features hardwood floors, crown molding, a limestone fireplace, and a bar with wine fridge. The kitchen, with its granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, showcases hand-crafted metal tin chandeliers created by artisans in San Miguel de Allende, renowned for their masterful metalworking and ceramics. A spacious family room, bathed in natural light from two walls of glass, opens to a large deck, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. The laundry is conveniently and discretely tucked away in the family room. The private backyard offers a peaceful retreat, complete with raised garden beds, a lush lawn, and mature trees. The detached 2-car garage with epoxy flooring and an extended driveway provides ample parking. The primary suite, thoughtfully separated from the secondary bedrooms, offers privacy and a restful retreat. Located just minutes from top-rated Alamo Heights ISD schools, this home is within walking distance to Friday night football games at Alamo Heights High School and offers convenient access to the Sunset & Co. Shopping Center for quick dinners and everyday essentials. This home perfectly blends unique charm, functionality, and an ideal location at an exceptional value.
