SOLD: Colorful cottage in Austin's Brentwood neighborhood
Situated in Austin’s vibrant Brentwood neighborhood, this updated mid-century bungalow is full of charm and character. With its welcoming front porch, verdant landscaping, and colorful paint, you can feel the soul and personality before even stepping foot inside. You’ll love the hardwood floors, mid-century details like the telephone nook in the hallway, and the unbeatable central location near coffee shops, restaurants, and parks.
A spacious living room greets you right from the door. From cozy mornings with coffee to movie night, this warm, welcoming space is ready for anything. Double doors overlook both the front and back yard and wash the room in beautiful natural light. The hardwood floors are well maintained and add beautiful dimension.
Conveniently adjoining the living room is a fully renovated kitchen with both glass-front and enclosed maple cabinets, display shelves, expansive Silestone counters, mosaic tile backsplash, and large-format tile floors. This sizable kitchen has thoughtful work zones to meet all of your needs, and includes a pantry with adjustable storage shelves.
The kitchen also includes a dedicated dining room which offers the flexibility for entertaining large groups or hosting small get togethers. The dining room has two sets of French doors opening to the large wrap-around deck, so you can easily dine al fresco under the shade of the mature trees.
The primary bedroom suite is roomy enough for a lounge area and includes a deep walk-in closet with Elfa-style storage which you won't find in many homes from this time period. The en suite primary bathroom offers a spa-like experience with your choice of glassed-in shower or jetted soaking tub. The bathroom is accented with soothing seafoam green tile and includes an extra-large vanity accented with engineered stone counters and abundant storage in the cabinets below.
Three secondary bedrooms can be adapted to your needs. The two front bedrooms both have ceiling fans, and the larger corner bedroom has two closets and is light and airy with windows on two sides. There’s also a versatile fourth bedroom adjoining the primary sleeping quarters that makes an ideal office or flex space. The secondary bedrooms share a hall bathroom with crisp, white subway tile and a combination shower/tub.
With beautiful established landscaping and yard sculptures in the front, you can sit on your porch or rock patio and greet the neighbors as they are out for a walk. The charming scene continues in the backyard where a grassy lawn is complemented with a rock patio, horseshoe court, and perimeter landscaping. There's room for the pets to run, flowers to be planted, and so much more. Enclosed with fencing and shaded by a large pecan tree, you’ll want to spend all of your free time in this charming backyard.
An extra-long driveway and covered carport provides off-street parking, while a backyard shed and attic space above the carport offer additional storage. There’s even a walk-in laundry room with substantial storage space. The home also includes many functional upgrades like a top-of-the-line digital irrigation system for the front and back yards, new roof, and digital thermostat.
Not only is this home rich in mid-century heritage, it's convenient to many Central Austin restaurants, coffee shops, and retailers. You’ll love taking a stroll Brentwood Social House for coffee, packing a picnic to enjoy under the trees at Brentwood Park, or grabbing a pizza at Little Deli. Spend an evening at Yard Bar with your four-legged friend, get a drink at Woodrow's or grab take out from Bird Bird Biscuit or Hat Creek. With many locally owned gems nearby -- like Barley Swine and Bufalina Due -- this neighborhood has a true sense of community.
Plus, with great access to both Loop 1 and Highway 183, you’re just minutes away from downtown, the Domain, and the Arboretum. But just how convenient is the location?
