About this House

** Please note: the property is unfurnished. **

Unbeatable location! Bouldin original meets contemporary gem! This mid-century modern beauty has been modernized and expanded by Austin architect Tom Hurt. Live close to downtown but not in the middle of it with a short walk to neighborhood restaurants, Whole Foods/Trader Joe's, and Lady Bird Lake hike & bike trail.

3/2 on a fenced corner lot. Inside, enjoy a light-filled, open floor plan with custom updates throughout including recessed lighting, original hardwoods plus bamboo and cork flooring. Chef-inspired kitchen with built-in cabinetry, stone countertops, and bar-seating. Jenn-Air & Bosch appliances, full-size stacked washer/dryer, tankless water heater, and lots of storage. As you head upstairs, natural light floods in through a light-well on the 2nd floor. Modern finishes continue into a private primary bedroom suite and bath on the second floor.
Outside, enjoy lush landscaping and a secluded back patio shaded by large heritage trees. Front yard is fenced in (not pictured). Long driveway with room to park 2 cars and plenty of on-street parking.
The perfect space for empty nesters, young professionals, small families, or grad student (or 2) seeking Central Austin living. Unbeatable central location near downtown, Lady Bird Lake, Zilker Park, and SoCo, South Lamar, and South First entertainment districts. Walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and seasonal events (ACL, Trail of Lights, El Alma, Blacks BBQ, Chuy's, P Terry's, Uchi, Bouldin Creek Coffee House, Whole Foods, and Alamo Drafthouse).

    "We’ve lived here for 2 years and love how close it is to all the going’s on, yet it’s not crowded with people/visitors. People are friendly but mostly keep to themselves. It feels like a safe place to leave the doors unlocked if you’re out during the day for a quick errand. "

    "Living so near SoCo and having the peace and quiet of a suburban neighborhood! SoCo is amazing and Lindell Avenue is a heartbeat away from the action while remaining a haven from congestion and parking problems. Living here gives you the feeling that every day is a vacation. What a great place to live!"
