$989,000 - 810 N Loop Street, San Marcos

They don't build them like this anymore- and this one's been brought back better than ever. This authentically renovated mid-century modern sits above San Marcos on coveted Loop Street- a secret beloved walking path that San Martians rarely get the chance to live on- with sweeping views of Texas State University campus, downtown, and your own private forest. Think Eames, Neutra, and a stunning custom pool- all wrapped in a home where every inch has been upgraded without sacrificing any soul. The sophisticated charcoal exterior with natural cedar front gives classic MCM curb appeal. The crisp white interior grounded by natural stone, wood accent walls, and custom olive green cabinetry feels like it was pulled straight from a 1962 design magazine. Solid bamboo floors, new insulated windows and sliding doors frame those views from every room, and the upgraded commercial TPO insulated roof means this home is built to outlast the next 55 years as well as it did the last. Quartzite stone counters, counter-to-ceiling tile backsplash, pull-out pantry cabinetry. All 3 bathrooms completely redone, new drywall, lighting, fixtures, and hardware — nothing left to chance. 5 bedrooms, 3 living areas. The 1st floor is its own private retreat — bedroom, full bath, living area, and reading nook — ideal for multigenerational living. The separate room off the outdoor kitchen is ready for your art studio, home gym, or yoga practice. New sliding doors spill out to a gorgeous custom lighted pool overlooking a wooded ½-acre lot, with a magnificent 100-year-old live oak, outdoor kitchen, and full-sized fridge for entertaining in true mid-century fashion. 2 balconies, 2,500 sq ft of outdoor living, sun and moonrise over the pool, and a front-row seat to San Marcos city lights and 4th of July fireworks. Price out new construction at this quality and you're looking at $400+ psf- without a custom pool, without the lot, and without the soul. The golden age of design is alive and well.
