The peaceful backdrop of this craftsman inspired home on a quiet street belies its proximity to the most desirable amenities and conveniences of Central Austin. A short Saturday morning walk can lead to the creative comfort food of the original Kerbey Lane Cafe or fresh pasta made daily from the Pasta Shop. Visit Anderson’s Coffee, Shop at Central Market, take a Pilates class or just get lost in the Austin Flower Market. And if a drive is in order, Mopac is around the corner. Honey-colored wood floors anchor rooms inside with light flowing in from large windows under transoms of leaded glass adding a touch of romance to this idyllic setting. A slate fireplace is central to the living area where trees outside the windows offer a view of nature and Silhouette blinds can be lowered for privacy. Crisp white cabinets in the kitchen hover over granite workspaces and a built-in desk area looks out to a tree through a perfectly positioned window. An office/bedroom off the kitchen on the ground floor is tucked away for guest privacy or the perfect home office. Craftsman style stairs open to an ideal loft space spacious enough to be a comfy media room or an intimate library. French doors open to a balcony off the primary bedroom so inviting it’s an end of the day reward. Whether sitting on a covered patio, taking a deep breath on a balcony or just coming home to the familiar comfort of beautiful surroundings, this home enveloping hug that is hard to leave. But if you must, everything you need is right around the corner.
