Property Overview

This 1920 bungalow on Navasota Street has been reimagined as a sophisticated modern farmhouse that honors its architectural heritage while delivering contemporary comfort. The main residence showcases a thoughtfully designed kitchen as its centerpiece, featuring custom cabinetry, open shelving, and a professional-grade six-burner gas range ideal for the serious cook. Original character details like the deep front porch and casement windows frame the home's timeless appeal, while the updated layout maximizes every square foot of the 964-square-foot interior.

What truly distinguishes this property is the separate studio and office ADU completed in 2023, positioned discretely on the 3,306-square-foot lot with its own entrance. This 200-square-foot addition functions as a third bedroom, guest quarters, or dedicated work space—opening possibilities for creative living arrangements or income potential in East Austin's vibrant neighborhoods. The carefully landscaped yard unites both structures into a cohesive, private sanctuary.

Set within East Austin's thriving cultural landscape of galleries, acclaimed restaurants, and breweries, this Navasota property sits at the intersection of historic charm and contemporary demand. At $765 per square foot, the pricing reflects the property's unique setup and thoughtful renovation quality in an increasingly sought-after neighborhood.
