About This Property
UNBEATABLE NEW PRICE IN DESIRABLE HIGHLAND PARK! A $100,000 price improvement makes this single-story home a unique opportunity in one of Central Austin's most sought-after neighborhoods, where the combination of location, lot size, and livability almost never comes together at once. 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 kitchen, dining, and living areas flow naturally into one another, anchored by warm hardwood floors and bathed in exceptional natural light. A show-stopping 100+ year-old reclaimed wood beam ceiling crowns the kitchen and dining space, while original doorknobs and repurposed triple-hung windows in the family room add thoughtful nods to the home's history throughout. The oversized primary suite is a true retreat, offering two walk-in closets, dual vanities, and a large glass-enclosed shower, and the mudroom/laundry room brings effortless ease to a busy household. Outside, a fully fenced backyard framed by mature trees offers 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. The neighborhood is every bit the draw 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, including Crenshaw's, Russell's, Yamas, Chez Zee, Mount Bonnell, and The Grove, rounds out daily convenience. Quick access to Mopac keeps the rest of the city within easy reach, with downtown under ten minutes away. Highland Park is a special place to call home - and homes like this don't come along often.
