128 FRENCH PLACE San Antonio, TX 78212-5803

Rare opportunity to own the Gould-Onderdonk House, the first home built in the Monte Vista Historic District (1882). The stunning property was the former home of Julian Onderdonk, Texas impressionist painter and has since been designated an historic landmark. The home has recently been renovated while maintaining its original and most architecturally significant features. A gorgeous library with coffered ceilings, built-in shelving, and bar welcome you upon entry. The dining and secondary living spaces offer soaring ceilings, exposed brick fireplaces, expansive windows, and original long leaf pine hardwoods. The gourmet kitchen features soapstone countertops, a 6-burner Viking gas range, separate beverage refrigerator, and an abundance of built-in storage. The oversized primary bedroom features multiple closets and a spa-like, ensuite bathroom with dual sinks and an oversized shower. All additional bedrooms include high ceilings, natural light, beautiful hardwood floors, and more. The expansive 0.36 acre lot features a completely private exterior living space with a built in gas grill and outdoor fire pit off the library. In addition the property includes a gorgeous covered porch with swinging bench, backyard with patio, garden, and pond, as well as a sprawling front yard and a new privacy fence. The Gould-Onderdonk House is ideally located in the Historic Monte Vista Neighborhood just minutes from the Pearl Brewery, Trinity University, Downtown, and near some of the best museums and restaurants in San Antonio.
