There are few people who enjoy living in the downtown area of any major city today, and San Antonio is no exception. The tourist trade keeps that area busy, noisy for a great part of each twenty-four hour cycle, at the end of the day the luxury living in Alamo Heights is going to be a much wiser choice for most professionals, and executives that work in town Monday through Friday. Just south of the San Antonio Airport sits this small municipality, that has a perfect mix of high-end custom homes, and great retro single-family homes from the thirties and forties. This bedroom community is considered one of the safest areas in the suburbs of the city, and has its own fire, and police departments to keep homes safe, quiet, and generally free of crime.
Sure you can buy a two million dollar condo in a high rise near the River Walk, but that kind of money will buy a homeowner so much more in Alamo Heights, and will offer that qualify of lifestyle that so many strive for when house hunting. There is an eclectic mix of home designs to chose from, and also a large selection of contemporary living quarters that have been built in recent years to appeal to the younger crowd that appreciates the atmosphere that has been created in this city that is small in size, but huge character. Whether your budget is a little over one hundred thousand, or you want to blow your recently acquired inheritance on a six thousand square foot custom home complete with cabana style outdoor living in the backyard, and dining pavilion with kitchen. People today have a much larger list of features, options, and amenities in their home shopping lists, on their property and in the subdivisions they reside.
Alamo heights seems to fill these needs for most residents just fine, and it just a short commute into the city come Monday morning. If you are a person that likes to renovate homes then the Spanish style villas that were built during prohibition era will be a great place to start looking. They do not come with deep discounts, but these homes were built with solid base materials that are still in quality condition today, and putting a new face or restoring them to their original charm will pay off big when it comes time to sell. There is plenty of shopping in the city limits, but just hop on the freeway, and you are minutes from any shopping venue in and around the San Antonio Metroplex
