Property Description
242 Parklane Drive is a one-story solid stone cottage located in the heart of Olmos Park on a corner lot. Currently, boasting two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms in the main house, each of the bedrooms has outside access to a small patio. A study/library, living room large enough to house the grand piano, separate dining room, and both bedrooms have their original hardwood floors which are in excellent condition. Built in the 1950's, this house has a screened porch attaching a third bedroom/bathroom (converted detached garage) to the main house. Renovated by the present owners as a playroom/ boys' hangout approximately twenty years ago, the room is currently used as an office/guest room. The house has a two-car carport with garage door which was built to include a large attic storage space on the East El Prado side of the house. Present owners moved into this house over 30 years ago to raise a family within the highly acclaimed Alamo Heights Independent School District (AHISD) which continues to provide a high quality education to Olmos Park children. Chartered as a city within San Antonio in the 1920's, Olmos Park amenities include its own city hall, multiple small parks which host community activities, and the excellent Olmos Park fire and police departments. Olmos Park's central location near downtown and the Pearl District shopping and dining makes commuting around San Antonio easy as typically Olmos Park residents are driving counterflow to most San Antonio traffic. Property owners in Olmos Park have the ability drill their own wells, which over twenty current Olmos Park Property owners have already done. Current owners have obtained architectural plans for renovations to the current house as well as preliminary plans for expanding the footprint of the house to include an additional 800 square feet, however have decided it's time for their much-loved house to go to new owners. Don't miss the chance to make this exceptional Olmos Park residence your own!
