Property Overview

This 1925 Craftsman bungalow on 2nd Street in East Austin has been meticulously renovated to showcase period character alongside contemporary comfort. The 2023 full restoration addressed structural essentials—foundation, electrical, plumbing, and roof—while an addition and thoughtful redesign created 2,421 square feet of living space that feels considerably larger than its footprint suggests. Hardwood floors anchor high-end finishes throughout, and the open main level centers on a chef-caliber kitchen with oversized island, flowing seamlessly into a screened rear porch that extends entertaining into the backyard.

The four-bedroom, three-bath layout provides genuine flexibility: a ground-floor primary suite with ensuite bath, an additional main-level bedroom suited for office or guest use, and two upstairs bedrooms that share a full bath. A finished 450-square-foot garage adds studio or workshop potential. The covered front porch invites entry while establishing street presence, honoring the home's historic lineage.

Positioned in East Austin's thriving cultural district, this residence places owners within reach of renowned restaurants, craft breweries, and the neighborhood's celebrated arts scene. Walking distance to Lady Bird Lake and established live oaks create an enviable quality of life rarely found in newly developed areas.

The renovation was comprehensive, covering an addition and updates to the foundation, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, and roof. Spanning 2,421 square feet across two thoughtfully designed levels, and further extended by a welcoming front porch, a screened rear porch that flows from the kitchen out to the backyard, and a fully finished 450 sq ft garage, the residence offers far more space than the square footage alone suggests. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors and high-end finishes run throughout. The main level features an open living area ideal for entertaining, a gourmet kitchen centered around a large island, and a primary suite for ultimate convenience. An additional bedroom on the main level offers flexibility as a home office or guest space. Upstairs, two more bedrooms, a bathroom and an additional living area provide the perfect separation of space. The detached 2-car garage with alley access is a rare find in this neighborhood. Fully finished with vaulted ceilings, insulation, and air conditioning, it functions equally well as a workshop, studio, gym, or additional living space. Situated just blocks from the dining, coffee shops, nightlife, and culture of Cesar Chavez and Chicon, and minutes from downtown Austin and local parks, this East Side gem delivers an unparalleled urban lifestyle.
