If you love the character of old Austin but want the comfort of modern updates, 12905 Powderhorn might be just what you're looking for! Tucked into Lamplight Village, an established North Austin neighborhood dating back to the 1970s, this remodeled 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has something you won't find in most newer construction: real personality. The architectural details are what make this home special. A dramatic curved stone fireplace anchors the living room, while a graceful arched opening to the kitchen, vaulted ceiling, and step-up dining area add character and dimension to the living spaces. Large windows bring in plenty of natural light, and warm wood-look flooring gives the home a comfortable, welcoming feel. It's a great mix of vintage Austin charm and thoughtful modern improvements. The updates go well beyond cosmetics, with crown molding, updated interior doors, tile in the kitchen and primary bathroom, and updated appliances. The roof is approximately three years old, and the HVAC system is just one year old—two major improvements already taken care of! The spacious primary suite features a generously sized bathroom and plenty of closet space, while two additional bedrooms provide room for guests, working from home, or pursuing your hobbies. Out back, the large, fully fenced yard offers plenty of possibilities. Picture weekend barbecues, a garden, a place for your dogs to run, or a relaxing outdoor hangout. And with no HOA, you have more freedom to make the property your own. Lamplight Village offers the appeal of an established neighborhood with convenient access to North Austin shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, and major commuting routes. Updated where it matters, full of architectural character, and refreshingly different from the ordinary. This is the kind of Austin home that makes you smile when you walk through the door.

About Lamplight
Village
Lamplight Village, located between North Lamar Boulevard and Burnet Road, is a mid-century and low-key Austin neighborhood with leafy streets and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the North Lamar Boulevard and West Koenig Lane intersection, where taquerias, record bins, and no-frills counters set a steady, lived-in rhythm. Ranch-style homes and tidy duplexes sit behind mature trees, with short blocks that keep walks practical. The nearby Crestview Station area adds a commuter pulse without changing the residential feel. Little Deli & Pizzeria, The Crestview Theater, and Black Star Co-op anchor local routines with food, film, and community tables. Sidewalks and green strips link daily errands to small outdoor breaks.
