Tucked into a vibrant, nature filled pocket of the city, this thoughtfully updated home blends modern upgrades, energy efficiency, and everyday comfort with a truly special outdoor setting. Since 2019, the owners have meticulously improved the property with house wide electrical updates (including USB and tamper-resistant outlets), restored HVAC registers, annual HVAC servicing, new blinds and carpet, added insulation and subflooring in the flex space, a new garage door mechanism with keypad, new gutters, fencing, and Google Fiber access for seamless connectivity. Both bathrooms feature matching porcelain and brushed nickel Kohler fixtures, with a beautifully renovated primary shower complete with tile, dual showerheads, niche, and sliding glass door, while the living room offers soaring ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace (gas service available) with regular chimney maintenance. The kitchen is functional and inviting with expanded cabinetry, updated paint, and accessible gas connections, and thoughtful additions like under-stair storage, a lofted second floor, and a full two-car garage make the space both practical and flexible. Energy efficient features including solar panels, tight double-hung windows (replaced in 2019), and a strong-performing HVAC system help keep utility costs low year-round. Outdoors, a majestic live oak (estimated over 100 years old) anchors a private backyard retreat where fireflies glow in spring, stars are visible at night, and native landscaping creates a peaceful habitat for birds, butterflies, and even screech owls. Located near parks, trail systems, and just a short walk to both Goat Cave Karst Preserve and Whirlpool Cave, plus easy access to the Violet Crown Trail leading to destinations like Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center and Barton Springs Pool, this home offers a rare combination of community, convenience, and natural beauty. An easy to maintain, light-filled space with character, privacy, and room to grow.
