The Spanish-style home was originally built as at the Idaho House for the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, where it was intended to show off the richness of Idaho's forest, according to details shared by the property's listing agent. All the rooms were furnished in native wood, and each room possessed a different finish.
Texan Jay E. Adams, a San Antonio developer, took a liking to the home and purchased it. He had a crew take the property apart and ship it via freight train to San Antonio. The home underwent another drastic change four years later, when it was split into two separate residences — a surgery undertaken by Jay E. Adams' son Carleton, a founder of the architecture firm Adams & Adams, which designed Jefferson High School, among other San Antonio landmarks.
The former Idaho House underwent a massive renovation in 2015 and is now on the market for $495,000 with many of its distinctive architectural features still intact, according to its sales listing.
