About this property
Some houses get updated. This one was transformed with obsessive craftsmanship and a quiet reverence for materials you simply don't find at this price point. Every decision was made with intention. This is what happens when a renovation is treated as an art form. Micro-cement walls with a warm, natural texture that shifts beautifully with the light. Polished concrete floors that gleam. Vaulted Douglas fir ceilings and exposed beams matched by every cabinet face—fine-grain, warm, and alive. A custom concrete island anchors a kitchen dressed in Zellige tile climbing to the ceiling. Bronze dimmable pendants casting a golden glow. Clerestory windows pulling in light without sacrificing privacy. Every wood detail—window sills, door frames, trim around the fridge—reclaimed from the house itself. Custom sycamore entry doors, an antique Art Deco vanity in a terrazzo-tiled bath that feels collected, not designed. Custom built-ins throughout. Wired for sound inside and out with vintage speakers that convey. The floor plan flows effortlessly—kitchen into dining into living—with a loft perched above it all, the perfect reading nook or meditation zone. New plumbing, electrical, and tankless water heater. Outside, a quiet inverted corner lot—practically a cul-de-sac, with only one side neighbor and a stillness that feels rare this close to everything. Next door, the storied lot where Threadgill's once stood and a young Janis Joplin first found her voice. A piece of rock and roll history, at your doorstep. The ADU has its own private entrance, full kitchen, updated bath, and an outdoor shower made for warm Texas evenings. Years of Airbnb income behind it, endless flexibility ahead—office, guest house, STR, or gym. You decide. Walkable to Brentwood Elementary, the park, and the restaurants and coffee shops along Lamar. Lamar Middle and McCallum High round out one of Austin's most beloved school trios. This is central Austin living—layered, soulful, and utterly one of a kind.
