Property Overview

Mature 150-year-old oak trees frame this thoroughly renovated 1986 home on Mendota Court in Austin, TX, where a $140,000+ transformation has created an entirely reimagined living experience. The residence balances substantial structural improvements with character-driven design elements that feel both contemporary and organic. Cathedral ceilings in the primary suite showcase soaring proportions, while the custom hardwood staircase—a handcrafted focal point—guides visitors to a versatile loft space ideal for a home office or secondary living area.

The kitchen emerges as the heart of this 1,714-square-foot home, where strategic lighting and proximity to the primary living zones create natural traffic flow. A gas fireplace anchors the main living space, and engineered hardwood flooring throughout conveys warmth and durability without the industrial feel of laminate alternatives. An elegant deck connects the kitchen, living area, and master bedroom, allowing those towering oaks to frame every sightline and infuse the home with the canopy's natural tranquility.

The primary bathroom elevates spa-like appeal with 12-foot ceilings that echo the bedroom's cathedral height, while a statement chandelier visible from both interior and streetside creates architectural presence. At $300 per square foot, this three-bedroom, three-bath home on a 6,817-square-foot lot represents thoughtful investment in one of Austin's established neighborhoods.
