A San Antonio art gallery owner’s historic home is now for sale | San Antonio

Every wall in this Monte Vista brick colonial recently listed for $1.7 million appears to be adorned with colorful artwork, and it’s no wonder. The four-bedroom, five-and-a-half-bath property is being sold by the owner of a high-profile local art gallery.

Though the art doesn’t come with the house, the next owner will be able to admire the composition and symmetry of the primary bathroom’s floor-to-ceiling marble tile, or perhaps the tableau vivant of a family dinner in the stately formal dining room.

Spanning more than 4,700 square feet, the home boasts plenty of wall space for its next owner to start their own art collection. Those interested in creating rather than collecting may want to turn the backyard casita into a personal studio and gesso a canvas or two.

Other artful details on the property include a luxurious backyard pool and a large, open living room where exposed ceiling beams frame a vaulted, wood-paneled ceiling.

This home is listed by Judy J. Barnes with Phyllis Browning Co.
