Absolutely adorable classic cottage perched on a hilltop on one of the best streets in iconic Travis Heights w a direct skyline view of downtown Austin! This cozy home exudes the nostalgic vibes of Central Austin that make it feel so special! You are greeted w a stone capped stairway leading to a shady tree canopied double front deck where you can sit and sip your morning coffee and enjoy the beautiful Austin scenery w panoramic views for miles! The custom cut Austin Limestone surround is a vintage cut stone they dont make anymore and a classic. Other retro treasures featured are the original hardwood floors, tall wood inlay ceilings & wood and stone interior walls in combination w the casement windows that bring in tons of natural light! Most of the big ticket items were already replaced including roof (5 yrs), HVAC (6 yrs), water heater (3 yrs), deck repainted (2 yrs), bathroom remodel (3 yrs). There is great storage or room to add on in the covered area to the right of the home or off the back! This location is truly special and its extremely rare to have views like this. For the outdoor enthusiast, its in walking distance to Stacy Park & pool which is open year round! Huge bonus..you are just a few blocks walk to the best part of historic South Congress w easy access to all of Austin's favorite restaurants and shopping like Perlas, Gueros, Magnolia Cafe, Joanns fine foods, Habana, Lucky Robot Sushi, Jo's & Kendra Scott! Enjoy a 5 min Uber to Barton Springs & Zilker Park for spring fed swimming, hiking, canoeing, paddle boarding & all the fabulous festivals like SXSW & ACL as well as UT Football games! Its just a short bike ride to Butler Pitch & Putt & Peter Pan golf which are longtime Austin favorites! This lot & homr have the absolute best feel and old Austin vibe! What a great place to call home!
