Property Description
A RARE OFFERING IN ONE OF CENTRAL AUSTIN'S MOST COVETED NEIGHBORHOODS. Tucked onto a quiet, tree-lined street in Highland Park, this single-story stunner delivers the trifecta that almost never comes together at once-location, lot, and livability. Originally built in 1949 and taken all the way to the studs before a renovation and expansion to 3,048 square feet in 2007, this home strikes a rare balance between soulful original character and clean modern function across 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a flat, hard-to-find 1/3-acre lot. Inside, the open kitchen, dining, and living areas flow effortlessly into one another, anchored by warm hardwood floors and bathed in exceptional natural light. The kitchen and dining spaces are crowned by a show stopping 100+ year-old reclaimed wood beam ceiling - accented by original doorknobs, repurposed triple-hung windows in the family room, and thoughtful nods to the home's storied past at every turn. The oversized primary suite is a true retreat, offering two walk-in closets, dual vanities, and a large glass-enclosed shower. And for the everyday realities of a busy household, the mudroom/laundry room serves as the perfect drop-zone entrance. Step outside to your own private escape- fully fenced and framed by mature trees, with a spacious deck, and multiple grassy spaces for play and gathering. A backyard storage structure with electricity brims with potential as a future studio, office, or workshop.In Highland Park, the neighborhood is every bit the selling point as the home itself. Perry Park is a short stroll away, Highland Park Elementary sits just four houses down, and a walkable lineup of local favorites- Crenshaw's, Russell's, Yamas, Chez Zee, Mount Bonnell, and The Grove- rounds out the daily convenience. Quick access to Mopac keeps the rest of the city within easy reach, and downtown is under 10 minutes away. The value speaks for itself and homes like this in this neighborhood don't stay available for long.
