As a child, I always considered the first Sunday of the year the saddest day of the year. Christmas had come and gone and the naughty vs. nice accounting started over. The same with the New Year’s Eve parties my parents would throw with family and friends. The first Sunday of the year meant going back to school the next day. The holiday season was officially over.
As an adult, I still consider the first Sunday of the year the saddest day of the year. The festive holiday decorations are being tucked away for another year, and the last of the airport runs are done, so loved ones can get back to their lives. After two weeks of fun hustle and bustle, it’s back to work, carpool, and the everyday routine that is not nearly as enjoyable. I know I am not alone here. It’s as though we need a vacation from the vacation that just happened.
After doing some research, CandysDirt.com has determined that the best place to enjoy a holiday after the holidays is San Antonio. It makes perfect sense. The weather is wonderful and the margaritas are plentiful.
Let me tell you, I have found the perfect second home where you can properly recover from the end of year push.
Located in the Enchanted Bluff Community, this home, built by Pencsak Builders, was part of the 2024 Parade of Homes.
If you want luxury living while recovering from the holiday blitz, then look no farther than this nearly 5,000 square foot home, which has received top honors including Best Elevation, Best Interior Design, Judges’ Choice, People’s Choice, and Realtors’ Choice awards.
Stepping through the doorway, you can feel your spark start to recharge. The interiors boast stone and wood ceilings with beams, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The only thing missing are the chips, queso, and a tasty margarita.
If you are up to having friends over, the house comes with a sleek and stylish bar.
The kitchen is sensational. The home features Michael Edwards cabinets and designer lighting.
Equipped with Sub-Zero Wolf appliances, including a 30″ refrigerator/freezer and a 24″ full wine refrigerator, this kitchen is a chef’s dream.
The large walk-in pantry includes a mixer lift, sink, and additional refrigerator. The pantry and bar feature premium Jennair appliances.
With spacious bedrooms and a primary suite bathroom to die for, the true joy this home brings is in the indoor/outdoor living space.
Whether it’s a cozy movie night, an evening around the pool or a little bit of both, the beautiful telescopic doors give you all the options you desire. That’s the beauty of San Antonio after the holidays.
Located in San Antonio, this four-bed, four-and-a-half bath home at 8183 Blue Oak Way is listed for $2.595 million.
