Located in the heart of highly sought-after Old Enfield, this chic 1937 bungalow blends timeless character with a moody, design-forward edge—thoughtfully updated and tucked into one of Austin’s most coveted neighborhoods. The main residence offers two bedrooms and two full baths, anchored by an open-concept floor plan—an uncommon and highly desirable feature for a home of this vintage. Original pine wood floors run throughout, complemented by an arched doorway that easily transitions the living space to the kitchen and dining areas. The kitchen has been thoughtfully reimagined with black soapstone countertops and a rich, saturated green palette, emphasizing a striking yet sophisticated focal point. The primary suite offers two closets and a private full bath, creating a comfortable retreat. The guest bedroom faces the front of the house with lots of natural light. A beautiful steel and glass door opens to the spacious outdoor deck that extends the living outdoors, perfect for entertaining or unwinding. Covered parking and generous storage further enhance the home’s thoughtful functionality. In the private backyard, a wellness retreat lined with copper to block EMFs includes a sauna and cold plunge (which are negotiable) and adds a unique, elevated lifestyle element, bringing a spa-like experience right into your backyard. Privately set apart, a detached ADU—built in 2013—offers 459 square feet with a large living space and 1 bedroom suite. It provides exceptional flexibility for guests, a home office, or income-producing potential. Main House: 2 Bed | 2 Bath | 1,160 SF ADU: 1 Bed | 1 Bath | 561 SF With its blend of historic charm, modern updates, and versatile living options, this Old Enfield property is a rare opportunity.
