Featured in DWELL Architectural Magazine, this mid-century modern home was thoughtfully renovated and designed by and for the owner. This home is truly unique in a neighborhood that is seeing a lot of investment. Location, location! The East Travis Heights location is as good as it gets; only 5 minutes away from downtown, East Austin, and the Lady Bird Lake Hike & Bike Trail. This mid-century ranch style home preserves the character of its original personality with upgraded aesthetic and functionality for a modern lifestyle. The design features flat, modern walls, concrete flooring and a stunning open kitchen that is a chef's and entertainer's dream. This home boasts incredible natural light throughout the day. The zen garden off the living room is perfect for your morning meditation or evening wind-down. The back "studio" room, currently set up as a work-from-home/artist's room, can easily be transformed into a formal third bedroom (see attached design/construction plans for ideas and contact the agent for more details). The free-standing wood burning stove, tall ceilings with exposed wood beams, and array of windows make this room a jewel of the home. The primary bedroom has a large walk-in closet, backyard access, and an en suite bath with an oversized walk-in shower. The renovation included the build-out of a gorgeous laundry room with plenty of counter space and cabinets, plus a generously sized built-in pantry. As you approach from the street, be sure to take note of the local artist mural which is beautifully showcased by the wall of windows in the front hallway.
