1504 Mohle Dr, Austin, TX 78703

Traditional charm meets modern luxury at 1504 Mohle Drive. This quaint, tree-lined street in the Central Austin neighborhood of Bryker Woods is dotted with original homes from the 1940s. In 2012 the home was essentially rebuilt with the owners taking great care to stay true to the neighborhood’s historic character. Partially demolished with the remaining interior taken down to the studs, all wiring and plumbing were replaced, and a second story primary suite and new garage were added. The stunning result represents the best of old and new Austin. The delightful covered front porch leads to an immaculate interior featuring gleaming hardwood floors, elegant crown molding, plantation shutters and beautiful natural light. The welcoming foyer opens to a comfortable living area that connects to the chef’s kitchen, truly the heart of this home featuring lots of storage, a large island and Thermador 36" range. The dining area has French doors leading to the expansive covered patio with stone fireplace. This outdoor oasis overlooks the backyard and is the ideal spot for al fresco dining and hosting fall football watch parties. The upstairs landing is a great place for the home office, just a few steps to the primary suite with vaulted ceiling, generous walk-in closet, and windows overlooking the backyard. The spa-like bathroom is gorgeous with a marble topped double vanity and frameless walk-in shower with rain shower head. Hardwood floors from the original home were reused in the owner’s suite. The large walk-in laundry is downstairs along with two good sized guest bedrooms and a luxurious full bath. The backyard is fully fenced with an electric gate on the private driveway. The oversized garage is insulated and finished out and includes an electric car charger. This versatile space could be easily converted into a flex room with the addition of a mini-split system. This home offers an unbeatable location close to everything Austin has to offer. Schedule a showing today!

Bryker Woods is a 1930s-50s neighborhood in 78703, between West 29th and 38th streets, defined by front-porch bungalows, mature tree canopy, and walkability to the 35th Street dining corridor. Median home price $1.5M. Austin ISD schools — Bryker Woods Elementary is one of the few Austin campuses where every family walks.

The housing stock is almost entirely original bungalows and cottages on lots under a quarter acre. Some have been carefully updated, others are untouched. The Old West Austin National Register Historic District designation covers the area, which explains the cohesive streetscape. New construction exists but must work within the scale of the neighborhood. Lot values run $600K-$1M.

Daily life revolves around proximity. Kerbey Lane Cafe (open since 1980) and Central Market on North Lamar are walkable or a short bike ride. Shoal Creek Trail runs along the neighborhood edge. UT campus is a 15-minute bike ride — no parking pass needed. Tiny Boxwoods and Postino on 35th Street handle the dinner rotation.

What separates Bryker Woods from adjacent Tarrytown: smaller scale, lower price point, and a denser, more walkable feel. The lots are compact but the canopy makes them feel larger. This is a neighborhood for people who value community proximity over estate-level privacy.
