About This Home
Back on Market after the holiday break! Located in the hip Ridgetop neighborhood with close proximity to many retail, entertainment, and restaurant amenities, this 1935 single story home exemplifies pride of ownership. Since 1955, this home has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully maintained by an established Austinite family. A white picket fence sits at the 55th 1/2 curb and the covered front porch swing overlooks the front yard. Once inside, the original, refinished hardwood floors of the reception room gleam with the abundant natural light from oversized windows. The 10' ceilings throughout create an illusion of additional dimensions within the home. Immaculate walls and floors express the intense care the owners have provided over the last several decades. The owner's suite has an added full bathroom that was part of a major renovation within the last 20 years. Pass through to the reconfigured kitchen space, complete with updated cabinetry, countertops, and fixtures. Just off the kitchen are two more bedrooms plus a tastefully renovated full bathroom, achieved with a clawfoot tub and stylish tile! The professionally landscaped backyard improvements are also important to note - large, covered deck, 8' privacy fence on western side, entertainer's bar, and existing wiring for potential hot tub. The best thing to do is to experience this historical gem in person, so please make an appointment to view! Washer, dryer, and refrigerator convey!
