Property Description
Located in the heart of Travis Heights, 1609 Alta Vista is a 1930's gem that has been meticulously remodeled to blend classic charm with modern luxury. The transformation began with a stunning kitchen overhaul in 2016 followed by a significant addition in 2022, ensuring every inch of this home meets the highest standards of today's living. Step into the warmth of beautiful hardwood floors and white walls that enhance the cozy ambiance and amplify the abundance of natural light. The layout includes a formal living room, a home office, a dining room, a main living area, and a powder room, all on the first floor, creating a seamless flow for both everyday living and entertaining. The main floor also includes a guest suite with a bedroom and full bathroom. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, offering generous space and refined finishes. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms provide ample space for family and guests. The outdoor space is equally impressive, with a landscaped yard featuring turf and stone coping, creating a low-maintenance retreat that's perfect for relaxation or hosting. The screened-in porch, offering tranquil views of lush greenery, provides a serene extension of the home's living space, ideal for enjoying the beauty of the outdoors in comfort. Located in one of Austin's most sought-after neighborhoods and just an 8-minute walk from South Congress, this home offers close proximity to the vibrant life and amenities of the city.
