Design takes precedence in this expertly-crafted brick bungalow. Framed by a white picket fence on a large lot, the curb appeal is immediate. Entirely new windows, drywall, insulation, plumbing, and electric complement the 90yr old hardwood floors. The main residence offers two bedrooms, two baths, and a front study with Murphy bed that converts into a third bedroom. Interiors are outfitted in antique brass, custom built-in cabinetry, motorized woven shades, designer wallpaper and Farrow & Ball paint. The kitchen features Black Phantom Quartzite countertops and Bosch 800 appliances. Bathrooms are finished with Ann Sacks tile, Carrera vanities, grey marble floors, hammered brass basins and Brizo fixtures. Mahogany doors open to an expansive Trex deck with retractable shade system framed by lush, irrigated landscaping. An additional income-producing guest quarters, located behind a trellised privacy fence, is separately accessed through the alley and includes laundry and private storage. Property includes parking for 4 and a 240v EV charger. A climate-controlled detached office completes the grounds. Set in a tree-lined neighborhood, this home offers exceptional walkability for daily life. Morning coffee at Milk & Cookies and local staples at Jefferson Square (Anderson’s Coffee, Austin Wine Merchant, Pasta & Co. , Lee’s Meat Market, and Kerbey Lane Cafe) are a stroll away. Outdoor spaces including Bailey Square Splash Pad, The Grove Park, and Central Market’s playground add to the neighborhood’s everyday livability, with St. Andrew’s Episcopal School Lower and Middle School nearby. Located off MoPac and minutes from downtown and UT, you can be both out of traffic and close to everything. The neighborhood hosts annual block parties and ice cream socials that keep the community close-knit. Properties that offer this level of finish, character, quality, income, and flexibility rarely come to market at an attainable price point in Central Austin.
