About this House
Spacious rooms with good natural light. High ceilings, wood and carpeted floors, ceiling fans. Fireplace. Eat-in bar. Stained glass mosaic backsplash in kitchen. Radiant barrier in attic that keeps out summer heat. Relax on the magic-feeling porch, listen to the birds sing and watch the many butterflies and bees. Prime East Austin location with quick access to downtown. Close to restaurants, coffee shops, and local hotspots. Easy commute to major employers and the University of Texas but feels like living in the country. Fenced yard full of life with plenty of trees and flowers.. Cottonwood tree leaves rustle like you're by a creek.
