PHOTOS COURTESY OF JÔNT Impressive Estate
with Distinguished Character
606 Arcadia Place
San Antonio, Texas 78209
Originally the 14-acre site of the Jessie D.
Oppenheimer House, this impeccably renovated
English Tudor estate commands attention, both
for its significant architecture and artful engi-
neering. Envisioned and realized by esteemed
architect Atlee B. Ayres, his exquisite taste for
English style is evident in the richly detailed
elegance of the home’s façade of striking dark
red brick, asymmetrical gables, slated roofs and
gabled dormer windows. Built to amaze and
capture the imagination of the individual who
relishes outstanding craftsmanship, this luxuri-
ous home was extensively renovated and richly
imagined for sophisticated owners of interna-
tional vision and unparalleled taste. Approach
this private estate through two grand sets of
double gates and meander along a curving red
brick drive, surrounded by lush flowers and
landscaping, exuding a feeling of the European
countryside. Made impressive by its grand en-
try, the elegantly crafted home is comprised of
approximately 11,000 square feet, and subtly
brings together rich Elizabethan and Jacobean
detailing as well as the noblest western materi-
als and ornaments to create a glorious environ-
ment for superior living.
