Built on a ridge overlooking the skyline, this Travis Heights home is located within a highly desirable, urban district walking distance to Lady Bird Lake, South Congress and downtown Austin. The current homeowners recently completed a turn-key 2020 renovation sparing no expense. Interior and exterior design and building technologies include Navien tankless H20 heater, two Carrier Performance 16 Seer ACs, Wolf dual 30” range and Pro 600 CFM hood, 36” sub zero built-in refrigerator with bottom freezer, 24” subzero dual zone wine storage, Cove dishwasher, Quartzite counters, Cle tile Zellige backsplash, composite low-maintenance cabinetry, Decora switches and outlets, rainfall shower head, RH shower system, Zia Moroccan concrete tile, no VOC natura paint, low maintenance tile flooring throughout, all LED lighting, cedar wifi enabled lift master garage door, remote controlled and blackout shades, and new roof, gutters, exterior soffits, facia and exterior paint. Professional landscape design includes board form architectural concrete, cedar decking, zoysia grass, irrigation, and native organics.
Needs work and has a challenging layout and lot, but it's in good condition and sits on a beautiful street close to Congress and just south of the river. Built into the side of a mountain, lots of steps to the front door and a long staircase from...
the garage onto the main floor. Chopped up layout with dated finishes but has potential. Close to I35.
