About This Home
As of April 2025Adorable 1920s Bungalow in the Heart of Austin. This North University classic is what Austin dreams are made of! Built in the roaring ‘20s, this 960 sq ft, 2-bed, 1-bath bungalow is packed with charm, character, and thoughtful updates. From the gleaming hardwood floors to the stained glass window accents, every inch of this home tells a story. Sitting right in the heart of North Central Austin, you’re surrounded by everything that makes this city special—live music, pocket parks, and endless incredible eats. You’re just minutes from UT, Shipe Park & Pool, Sparky Park, and some of the best restaurants in town. Need groceries or a coffee fix? Easy. Need to hop on a bus? No problem. Need a cozy spot to unwind? You’re already there. This home has the kind of warmth and character you just don’t find anymore. Natural light pours in, dancing across the original hardwood floors. The kitchen is as charming as can be, with its big farmhouse sink, sturdy butcher block countertops, and a spacious pantry ready for all your favorite goodies. The enclosed front porch/mudroom keeps things tidy, while the two cozy bedrooms offer plenty of comfort. The primary suite even has two closets—because let’s be honest, one is never enough! Outside, the front and back yards are perfect for pets, weekend BBQs, or enjoying that sweet Texas breeze. The gated carport and extra driveway parking mean no more street-parking headaches. And let’s not forget the 2022 roof with a GAF Silver Pledge Warranty, plus a fridge, stackable washer/dryer, and backyard storage unit included—making this home move-in ready. Living here means being minutes from Antonelli’s Cheese Shop, Hancock Golf Course, and all your Austin favorites. If you want charm, convenience, and a slice of old-school Austin, this is it! Schedule your private showing today! Our sellers are completely out of pocket on Saturdays and Sundays. All offers received over the weekend will be presented first thing on Monday.
