Property Description
A true unicorn - classic mid-century brick cottage tucked into one of Austin's most popular central neighborhoods, lovingly updated and bursting with charm, adjoining 1000s of sqft of craft, greenhouse and workshop space, perfect for that old school, hands-on homeowner, all sitting on a .33 acre corner lot with potential for expansion or just enjoyment. The incredible versatility, quality and breadth of assets within this one property, assuredly there is nothing else like it on the market. The house is cute as can be, updated 4 bedroom / 2 bath period charmer. Owners went to great lengths to open up the living spaces, delivering a sense of space that far exceeds the square footage. Classic MCM brick fireplace. Rich wide plank white oak floors. New kitchen anchored by imposing 36” JennAir gas range and hood vent, gleaming quartz countertops and lovely dry bar. Comfortably-sized Primary Suite with double vanity and curbless open shower. BR3 thoughtfully set up as a guest / flex space with a built-in murphy bed, additional storage. BR4 being used as a home office, sun-soaked south facing corner with custom built-in bookshelves. The home was thoughtfully updated from tile to plumbing, from window coverings to the light switches. It was a labor of love, not a flip. Then…. for the auto enthusiast - easy side access pass-through 4+ car garage space for those cherished classics or your current project. For the woodworker - fully built-out woodshop with ventilation system and double doors. For the gardener / horticulturist - sizable greenhouse & nursery room with water, ready made plant shelves on the bright southwest corner. And for all good Texans - a massive ventilation system for a commercial BBQ / smoker. Several more workshop spaces and storage areas. Be assured, no matter your passion, your dream space awaits. The 1/3 acre corner lot still leaves for plenty of greenspace for projects, parties or future expansion. Hard to fit into pictures or words - a 'must see'.
