Another Atlee Ayers-designed house here in San Antonio, this Craftsman style mansion was built for former DeWitt County Judge and Eagle Pass District Judge, Winchester Kelso and his wife, May, in 1907. It is located at 107. W. Craig Place, just a block west of McCullough Avenue. It is in need of some serious work but it would be a shame to tear it down. It is currently appraised at $250,000 and owned by Cappy Lawton (of La Fonda, EZ's and Cappycino's fame.) It would take a considerable sum to restore but would be worth millions when it was done.
(Winchester Kelso is a distant relative of mine. My great-grandmother was a Kelso. I would love to own this house.)
