Commute Destination

Description

Austin’s Cary Drive is located in the highly desirable Allendale Oaks subdivision, home to some of the most beautiful trees in Austin. Great schools are a big draw, and a close-in location make a commute to downtown easy, without the need to navigate freeways or toll roads. Shopping and great restaurants are plentiful in the area.

Originally built in 1952, 5903 Cary Drive was purchased and remodeled in 1990 as retirement spot. During remodeling, it was stripped down to the studs, completely rewired, new plumbing installed, new sewer line, new main water line, and plenty of insualtion.

The couple who bought it envisioned grandchildren playing in the back yard of the large, 1/3 acre lot, anchored by a mature pecan tree. 30 years later, the surviving owner is ready to sell. The huge back yard allows plenty of room for additions without disturbing any mature trees.

The interior features beaded wall paneling, hard wood floors, and quality ceiling fans throughout. The central A/C was replaced with a high SEER unit in the last few years. Plenty of insulation keeps it cool in the summer. Nice size living room with a large bay window attached to a formal dining area.

Kitchen has a gas stove and oven with a pantry and plenty of storage space. Next to the kitchen, the large breakfast room overlooks the fenced back yard. The interior features one full bath with tub, one 3/4 bath with shower, and one half-bath with sink and toilet.

Pier and beam foundation under the house makes foundation settling a non-issue. (see disclosure statement for details.) Covered back patio is plumbed for a natural gas grill. Two car attached garage exits to the kitchen, or back yard. Recent energy audit (email copy available upon request). House has been well maintained and lovingly cared for. It's located on a beautiful street with marvelous neighbors.

Call Mark to schedule a time to tour the home. 503-475-7914. Thanks!

    "There are always friendly faces out - kids, bikers, runners. It’s very family oriented and has a great park with tennis and a pool. Close vicinity to some of Austin’s best restaurants, a movie theater, grocery stores, and super easy to get downtown."

    "The elementary school is like a movie set. Kids art everywhere. Animals. Everyone uses the playground and people fly kites in the sports field. There’s the most magical 4th of July parade with bagpipes and floats that ends at the elementary school - free ice cream and pledge of allegiance. Halloween is just as cute. Christmas is a lights wonderland. "

    "We have a stellar newsletter. And our population seems to be quite active as stewards of Austin’s growth along Burnet Rd. I have often been asked to become aware of changes and proposals that I never would’ve heard of otherwise. I’m glad so many people in our area make it their business or their hobby to be good stewards of the neighborhood. "

    "This neighborhood combines the best of both worlds, which is decreasingly common - urban living combined with spacious, family friendly lots and atmosphere. You can literally walk or bike everywhere and you can also enjoy the privacy of a spacious backyard with enough space for big items like pool and trampoline. It's suburban living without the monotony of suburbia."

    "In rush hour traffic, it's about 20—30 minutes to downtown, and 30-45 minutes back in the afternoon. For Austin traffic, this is about as good as it gets without moving into downtown with its sky-high rental prices. From here, it's easy to get on MoPac and drive downtown. And if you work north of Allandale, there's virtually no traffic."

    "While this part of town still has plenty of walkable, safe streets, it also has some bigger (older) shopping complexes that are not as pet-friendly as some of the places slightly further south. At least that's the impression I get. We don't see as many people with pets around, but we also don't walk around the neighborhood much—we tend to drive more here."

    "It's a ten minute drive to UT, the State Capitol, the museums, and all the happenings downtown. Yet the truly wonderful fact about this central Austin location is that it offers more acreage per person in all of Austin. Not only do you have the advantage of living in central Austin, but also you have the pleasure of enjoying life in quiet, spacious surroundings filled with trees, birds, bike trails, and parks. This central location is a gem. "
