Last week our trip to Stone Oak took us to a rental home that was built in the 1980s and has the features to match. This week, we’re going to one of the towns that were enveloped by San Antonio, Leon Valley, to look at a two-story home that was built in the last decade. The layout and accents scream the 2010 era of home trends, which is less open concept.
The home at 5237 Savory Glen, San Antonio, TX 78238, was built in 2011, according to Bexar County records. You will find many areas of the homes sectioned off by walls and earth tones. The home is also right behind the San Antonio Aquarium and not far from the Medical Center.
So how much do you think you’ll pay for this three-bedroom home?
Let’s take a look.
This must be the living room. It is not the only place for people to gather.
CraigslistWe start in what appears to be the living room. You can see in this picture how the room is sectioned by a wall. It also counteracts the trend seen in homes being built today – wooden floors or wood-style tiles. There is a lot of carpet in this home.
The brown cabinets are very much a trend from the 2010s.
CraigslistThere are the brown cabinets. We also have granite worktops and stainless steel appliances.
Let’s go upstairs to see the bedrooms.

The house also has a games room upstairs.
CraigslistThe game room, also known as a family room, is what will greet you upstairs. Most people tend to turn this into an entertainment area or a children’s playroom. It’s entirely up to you.
I’ve always been weird about rooms with one window.
CraigslistI’m not down with these one window bedrooms. I need more natural light. To each his own.
The master bedroom has a short vaulted ceiling.
CraigslistI’ve seen this mini-vaulted ceiling feature in the master bedrooms of homes built in the 2010s.
You have rails to help you out of this master shower in the bathroom.
CraigslistThe bathroom in the master bedroom has a fairly large bath with shower. You can easily relax in this one.
This green backyard with a shady patio and a young tree gives off a retro dream home vibe.
CraigslistWe have backyard left for this listing. It comes with a covered patio if you want to entertain or just cook.
So how much would you pay for this home? The Craigslist posting says you’ll pay $1,950 per month for this home plus a $1,500 security deposit. The average rent for a three-bedroom home in the area is $1,750.
