Property Overview

This 2021 fully reconstructed residence at 1911 College Avenue in East Austin delivers modern living wrapped in historic charm on a tree-lined street directly across from a neighborhood park. The original 1940s structure has been meticulously rebuilt from the ground up with a new pier-and-beam foundation, fresh framing, updated electrical and plumbing systems, and contemporary HVAC throughout, while thoughtfully preserving original shiplap for character. At 907 square feet, the home maximizes efficiency with spray foam insulation, Andersen windows with blackout blinds, and a Nest thermostat that puts climate control at your fingertips.

The two-bedroom, two-bath layout sits on a generous 4,007-square-foot lot and benefits from meticulous attention to energy efficiency and modern convenience. An ADT security system, recently completed landscaping, and pool access create an inviting outdoor retreat in one of Austin's most vibrant neighborhoods. This East Austin location puts you steps away from the area's thriving arts scene, top-tier restaurants, and breweries while maintaining the authentic cultural diversity that defines the community.
