About this property

903 E 14th St. offers the best of both worlds: modern, open-concept living with vintage charm in a custom re-built & enlarged home on Austin’s vibrant east side. With 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a separate office, multiple living/sitting rooms & resplendent porches, the home was taken down to the studs, meticulously enlarged & updated in 2010 and has been lovingly cared for ever since. The large lot abuts tranquil Swede Hill Park, has no neighbors to the east, enjoys alley access (allowing for future ADU, garage apt) and features a lovely backyard with extensive plantings and healthy palm trees. The stunning upper 216 sf screened porch has composite flooring & custom drainage system. The 216 sf downstairs covered back porch with awnings leads to the lush fully fenced yard with multiple seating areas and 12x16 shed. The rebuild included: new kitchen; new bathrooms; new electric; new plumbing; hardwood floors throughout; double-pane windows; extensive custom shelving; 30-year shingle roof (w/ radiant barrier); foundation leveling & new piers; and an entirely new 2nd floor. The house has a light, airy floor plan imbued with the character of a 20th century bungalow. The home’s 1st floor has been opened up and contains a large office; guest bedroom; full bathroom; front-of-house living room; sitting/flex/dining room/ and large kitchen with butcher block island (w/ shelving), a large sun-filled dining area, custom glass-front cabinets, porcelain apron sink, large pantry and local granite countertops (from the same quarry as the Texas Capitol granite). Upstairs are two en-suite bedrooms with ample closets. The primary BR opens to the stunning screened porch, its bathroom replete with large soaking tub, double vanity and walk-in shower. The light-filled secondary BR has a vaulted ceiling & upper clerestory windows. Completing the 2nd floor is a sitting/flex room (w/ custom bookcases), a cabinet-filled laundry room and two attic storage areas.
