120 Morton was designed and built in 1952 by San Antonio architect Charles Dawson as his family home. A unique and progressive home for that time. 120 Morton is styled as a mid-century home situated on 0.33 acres among beautiful oak trees of Alamo Heights. You can't miss this home, due to its beautiful landscaping, cedar planks siding and stucco base. Built in 1952 the house has been remodeled to bring it back to life. This home was originally designed as a split-level home, with the original 3 bedrooms/ 2 baths upstairs, a main floor with living, dining and kitchen area. The lower level was an open space but has been remodeled into a Master bedroom suite. Included in this level was wine storage, library with cozy fireplace, office nook, mater bath and master closet. The Master suite also opens up to a covered and screened in patio perfect for mornings and evening relaxation. The kitchen was remodeled as well. The kitchen has new windows to bring in more natural light as well as sola-tubes in the upstairs hallway. All new kitchen cabinets were installed. The home had an old brick incinerator that was made into a pull-out coffee bar. The appliances were updated to a mid-century line by Big Chill Retro Appliances with a beautiful pine wood countertop. Also installed a new steel beam for support in the main living area and also installed lots of mood lighting in the ceiling and kickplates under kitchen cabinets and fireplace hearth. The live edge wood countertop to sit upon a mid-century breeze block base. The countertop is made from 100 yr. old cypress tree. Besides wood floors there is also 4 styles of terrazzo floor styles is different areas of the house. Added an Artichoke pendant light in the kitchen and a 1950's Marianne Brandt German pendant chandelier in the stairway space. The wood floors were brought to their natural tiger white oak flooring beauty.
