Description

Welcome to this classic, updated Austin cottage, tucked away in highly sought-after Crestview neighborhood. This bright, inviting home retains its original mid-century charm while showcasing thoughtful, modern updates throughout. The fully renovated kitchen, completed in 2024, serves as the centerpiece of the home. Natural light pours in through large windows, illuminating the elegant black and white checkered flooring, sleek honed black granite countertops, a French marble island, and custom Shaker-style cabinetry. The kitchen is equipped with top-tier appliances:LG French-door refrigerator, GE Profile gas range, and Bosch dishwasher. Additional features include counter-to-ceiling Crossville porcelain tile, soft-close cabinets, solid walnut shelving, and quartz sink. The primary suite offers new closets and French doors that open to the garden. Both bathrooms have been fully renovated with large frameless walk-in showers, recessed lighting, porcelain tile, and Toto toilets. The large backyard is a serene space for gardening enthusiasts, with established native plants, unique ornamentals, and ample space to grow fruits and vegetables. Black gravel pathways wind through large garden beds, with a low-maintenance grassy area ideal for pets. This home is located on a quiet block with a friendly mix of new and long-time residents. Tree-lined streets put you within walking distance of newly remodeled Brentwood Elementary, Little Deli, Violet Crown Wine Bar, and Fresh Plus Grocery. It’s a short drive to downtown Austin, the University of Texas, Lady Bird Lake, and Austin-Bergstrom Airport. Crestview Station is also within walking distance, and offers convenient light rail access to downtown. Additional plusses include a new Carrier HVAC (2023), Rinnai tankless water heater, and Google Fiber internet to the house. If you’re looking for a move-in ready, small-town Austin original, schedule a visit today. A full upgrade sheet is available on request.
