This 1920s masonry home at 1605 S Austin Ave sits in the heart of Old Town Georgetown, steps from the historic Georgetown Square and within the highly rated Georgetown ISD. At $895,000 ($330 per square foot), the 3-bedroom, 3-bath residence spans 2,711 square feet across a property with personality that rewards exploration.
The house moves through multiple living zones, each anchored by original details and thoughtful updates. Hand-sawn pine hardwood floors run through main spaces, refinished to reveal their early-20th-century character. Built-in bookcases frame rooms with natural woodwork still intact, creating that comfortable, collected feeling where things matter. The kitchen channels modern convenience with quartz counters, stainless steel appliances including dual gas ranges and a convection oven, yet respects period proportions. Three full baths include renovated spaces with custom cabinetry. A primary bedroom anchors the main floor with its own separate entrance, a practical detail that opens options for guest quarters or rental scenarios.
Texturally, the home layers carpet, tile, and wood flooring across different rooms, each choice marking distinct spaces. Chandeliers, recessed lighting, and ceiling fans provide rhythm. The tankless water heater and entirely new electrical and plumbing systems sit invisibly beneath these original surfaces, ensuring systems match modern demands without announcing themselves.
The outdoor envelope defines daily life here. A wraparound porch structure wraps three sides, with front, rear, and side options for morning coffee or evening air. A detached 2-car garage with EV charging handles vehicles. A fenced backyard provides real privacy on the 0.22-acre lot, while mature pecan trees frame a circular drive. A gated side yard entrance opens space for boats or recreation vehicles.
Living in Old Town Georgetown means proximity to the Square's restaurants, galleries, and weekly farmers market. Annie Purl Elementary, James Tippit Middle, and East View High anchor the Georgetown ISD school network. The location sits north of I-35, positioning commutes to Austin tech corridors and the airport within reasonable range.
This home rewards owners who appreciate lived-in spaces with bones worth keeping.
