About This Home
As of June 2025This sweet bungalow is among the last of its historical kind in Bouldin Creek. A potent…almost magical vibe that you will notice immediately upon walking through the front door. Young family? it’s the place to plant your roots. Becker Elementary, a high ranking primary school, is less than a block away. Single professional or retiree? A perfect refuge amidst the beautiful cityscape.14' high ceilings and original wood flooring create a bright & spacious feel. The transitional bathroom design ties beautifully into this historic house. Encased in Carrara marble & heated floors, the soaking tub and rain shower make it a spa like experience. 2 spacious bedrooms have floor to ceiling closets & cabinetry to provide ample storage. The tall living room windows accompany the high ceilings to provide a perfect amount of natural light & ambience. The kitchen offers an incredible amount of cook space and storage with massive OG pine countertops and custom cabinets all the way to the ceiling.Whether a happy hour get together or family s’mores around the custom built fire pit…the gigantic backyard deck is perfect for any type of soiree. The 500 SF shop in the back is perfect for a creative space or office. It's also ready to finish out and easily double your short term rental capacity with room for a large bedroom, kitchenette and bathroom. New electrical panel plus a 220 outlet for larger appliances or washer and dryer.So much beautiful history in this neighborhood. A public library - across the street. The Shambala Meditation Center- 5 houses down. If you go down the S.5th hill you'll hit Barton Springs Road, some of Austin’s best restaurants and shopping. And! the PALMER EVENT CENTER, ZILKER PARK and BARTON SPRINGS!!! Being in middle of it all made it a highly profitable STR for 8yrs. ACL fests, SXSW, Formula One, downtown. 78704 - the coveted zip code. Live and love it. This is the quintessential Austin home. Appointment only viewings. Email 1717south5th@gmail.com
