Guess the rent of this San Antonio apartment near the Pearl

Guess the rent is stepping away from modern apartments once again and heading into the historic Tobin Hill neighborhood near some of the city’s most popular nightlife spots. This week we are looking at an upstairs two-bedroom apartment at 318 E. Park Ave., which is not far from San Antonio’s Gay Strip, the St. Mary’s Strip, and the Pearl.
The apartment is in a historic looking home and appears to be a duplex situation. It has recently been updated but still includes wood flooring throughout the apartment. It’s also basically a stone’s throw from downtown.
But again, the question remains if you’re paying for the apartment or the location?
Let’s take a look.

We’ll have to take the stairs.

You know why I love this room.
CraigslistThis is at least my favorite room in the house. If you read this series often you’ll know why, but this many windows in one room is a dream. I would make it my bedroom.

I think we’re getting a look at the living room or another bedroom.

This dining room has just enough space for a slightly larger table.

The kitchen and entire home has recently been remodeled.

The updated shower tile is a nice addition.

We love a good porch.

So how much will you pay for this apartment in Tobin Hill? The Craigslist post says that the price is $1,150 per month with a security deposit of $450. The deposit is commonly first month’s rent. The post does ask for the tenant make a certain amount of income but also says housing choice vouchers are accepted.
Pets are also accepted on a case-by-case basis.
