Property Description
This gorgeous Brentwood area bungalow, expanded with a thoughtful 1,096-SF addition in 2008, blends modern comfort with original charm and delights at every turn. The sellers have lovingly cared for the property for more than 20 years, blending meaningful structural and systems upgrades with preserved original character, including restored vintage siding, windows, and custom carpentry.
Inside, you'll find 100-year warrantied hardwood flooring (installed 2023) and a flexible first-floor layout with both a living room and cozy family/media room. The entertainer's eat-in kitchen features a 5-burner gas range, microwave, LG French-door refrigerator, and stainless dishwasher. Built-in shelving and custom hooks throughout add charm and function.
The first floor includes two spacious guest bedrooms and a full bath, while the private upstairs primary suite feels like a retreat in the treetops. It offers a built-in wardrobe, full bath, and a washer/dryer for added convenience.
The large screened-in porch with oversized sliding doors opens seamlessly to the yard. Step outside to a true backyard oasis: xeriscaped landscaping, multiple seating areas, and two purpose-built sheds. A 96-SF storage shed with shelving and a workbench, plus a 32-SF bicycle shed (crafted from recycled materials from the original 1947 garage), provide ample storage and workspace.
Practical upgrades include a metal roof, new water heater, Austin Gutterman's SnapLock high-capacity seamless gutter system, and top-down bottom-up blinds throughout.
The location is unbeatable! Just one block to the Metro bus and a short stroll to local favorites like Nervous Charlie's, Titaya's, and Epoch Coffee. With quick access to North Loop and the Triangle, you're minutes from dining, shopping, and entertainment.
This home blends preserved mid-century charm with modern comforts and meaningful upgrades, offering the very best of central Austin living.
