About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to a Stunningly Refurbished 1890 Cottage in Travis Heights Step into this exquisite Folk Victorian gem, lovingly restored for modern living while preserving its historic charm. Nestled in Travis Heights, one of Austin’s most desirable neighborhoods, this 1890 cottage blends timeless craftsmanship with contemporary luxury. Pass through the antique French gate and enter a home steeped in history, elevated with curated design details. The classic gable-front-and-wing architecture remains intact, while bold colors, rich textures, and modern conveniences add sophistication. The luxurious kitchen is a showpiece with Calacatta gold marble and black soapstone countertops, an 1897 Shaw’s sink, a Victorian Eastlake antique general store counter, Rohl unlacquered brass fixtures, and a Blue Star Range with a 1200-degree cast iron broiler. Hand-etched glass from Blanco and a Murano glass chandelier add artisanal beauty, while original oak wood panels from a historic Chicago bank and vintage Hunter fans highlight its craftsmanship. This home offers three spacious bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and a versatile office space, ideal for remote work or creative pursuits. Every room is thoughtfully designed for comfort while showcasing unique history. Outside, the exterior flex space is a true showstopper—perfect as an artist’s studio, private retreat, or outdoor bar. The serene backyard is ideal for relaxation or hosting unforgettable gatherings. Just steps from South Congress Avenue, this home puts you at the center of Austin’s vibrant culture. Renowned shopping, eclectic dining, and live music venues are a short stroll away. Don’t miss your chance to own this fully refurbished 1890 cottage—a true Travis Heights gem and a stunning piece of Austin’s heritage.
