Mid-Century Retreat with Private Pool near Airport, Pearl & Downtown

Welcome to a one-of-a-kind San Antonio retreat — a 1,700 sq ft mid-century modern home with 4 bedrooms, space for up to 12 guests, distinctive architectural details and a private backyard built around a custom in-ground pool.

**PRIVATE POOL & BACKYARD**

The outdoor space is the highlight of the home. Spend the day relaxing in the custom in-ground jetted pool then unwind on the oversized patio surrounded by mature trees and landscaped grounds.

After sunset, custom landscape lighting and string lights create a relaxing atmosphere throughout the backyard. You’ll also have a BBQ grill, outdoor seating, bamboo privacy screening and plenty of space to enjoy time outside with your group.

Please note that the pool is not heated.

**MID-CENTURY CHARACTER**

This isn't a typical rental. The home incorporates distinctive design elements and pieces of San Antonio history throughout the space.

One of the most interesting features is a vintage privacy wall salvaged from the legendary Earl Abel’s restaurant. You’ll also find a retro telephone nook, backlit architectural divider between the kitchen and living area and other mid-century details that give the home its personality.

**SLEEPING & COMFORT**

The home accommodates up to 12 guests with 4 bedrooms plus a queen air mattress for additional sleeping flexibility:

• Primary bedroom — Queen bed
• Bedroom 2 — Queen bed
• Bedroom 3 — Twin bunk bed + twin trundle bed with pull-out twin
• Bedroom 4 — Twin trundle bed with pull-out twin
• Queen air mattress — Available for up to 2 additional guests

You’ll also have fast Wi-Fi, cable TV, washer and dryer and a fully equipped kitchen with cooking essentials and a drip coffee maker. A high chair and Pack ’n Play are available upon request.

**IMPORTANT PRIMARY SUITE LAYOUT**

As part of the home’s unique architectural design, the walls of the primary bedroom and bathroom do not extend completely to the ceiling. The primary bathroom also has an open design without a door.

Please keep this layout in mind if bedroom and bathroom privacy is important to your group.

**LOCATION**

The home is centrally located in North Central San Antonio with convenient access to some of the city’s best dining, shopping and attractions.

San Antonio International Airport and North Star Mall are just a short drive away with The Quarry, The Pearl, San Antonio Zoo, Botanical Garden, downtown and the River Walk all within easy reach.

You’ll also have convenient highway access for exploring Six Flags Fiesta Texas, SeaWorld and the rest of San Antonio.

Whether you’re planning a family trip, couples getaway or group vacation, this home offers a distinctive combination of private outdoor space, mid-century character and a convenient central location.

Great for small group getaway.

Everything was up to expectations with this house, it is on the smaller side but the large backyard area makes up for the smaller living room area. Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived, would recommend.

The pool and outside area was quite relaxing and perfect for our booking. The location is on point for exploring San Antonio. The neighborhood is quiet and sits near lots of great restaurants and shopping. The inside is spacious and unique. The master bathroom is gigantic and beautiful The owner was very responsive to messages before and during our stay.

Peaceful Oasis Near it All

We had a lovely stay at the Shearer Hills - Ridgeview property. The bed was comfy and the master shower was epic. The back deck and pool area are a dream. We sat outside every day and night and it felt like a total escape.

Great place to stay. Plenty of towels and comfortable beds. Home was clean. Countertops were dirty and pool had not been cleaned. Seems like a lot to pay for cleaning when we had to clean certain areas ourselves. Other than that it was an enjoyable stay.

We had a great stay at this property. Everything was easy. The house was clean and had everything we needed. One warning for light sleepers that go to bed early - the walls of the main bedroom stop a few feet short of the very high ceiling. This creates some really interesting architecture and nice lighting, but it is a bit loud if people are hanging out in the living room (which they probably won't because the outdoor space is so nice).

This was a truly beautiful house, and I really enjoyed my stay. The place was extremely clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. The host was outstanding—communicated clearly and consistently, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free. My friends and family were also with me, and they all shared the same positive experience. We felt right at home from the moment we arrived. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and well-kept home to stay in. Without a doubt, I’ll be booking this property again in the future.

Friends Weekend

We stayed as a group of friends to celebrate some birthdays and hang out together. We loved the outdoor seating to be able to watch TV. We enjoyed being able to use the stocked kitchen and grill outside. Swimming in the pool was so fun in the afternoons. We didn't leave the house much but when we did the house was close to everything we needed. Daniel is a great host. Everything we needed was provided and his instructions were very clear. I would return to this property in the future!
