This home is truly unique in a neighborhood that is seeing a lot of investment. Location, location! The East Travis Heights location is as good as it gets; only 5 minutes away from downtown, East Austin, and the Lady Bird Lake Hike & Bike Trail. This mid-century ranch-style home preserves the character of its original personality with upgraded aesthetic and functionality for a modern lifestyle. Features include flat, modern walls, concrete flooring, and a stunning open kitchen that's a chef's dream. This home boasts incredible natural light throughout the day. The zen garden off the living room is perfect for morning meditation or evening wind-down. The back "studio" room, currently set up as a work-from-home/artist's room, can be transformed into a formal third bedroom (see attached design plans for ideas and contact the agent for more details). The freestanding wood-burning stove, tall ceilings with exposed wood beams, and array of windows make this room a jewel of the home. The primary bedroom has a large walk-in closet, backyard access, and an en-suite bath with an oversized walk-in shower. The renovation included the build-out of a gorgeous laundry room with plenty of counter space and cabinets, plus a generously sized built-in pantry. As you approach the home, you will notice the thoughtful xeriscaped front yard featuring native Texas plants, and be sure to take note of the local artist's mural which is beautifully showcased by the wall of windows in the front hallway. This home is a special one; come see for yourself!
