About this home

Thoughtfully updated inside and out, this Northwest Austin home blends timeless character with today’s style and functionality. Seller improvements include partial roof replacement, updated landscaping and stonework, new fencing and gates, enhanced exterior lighting, a new cedar front patio beam and column, refreshed patio tile, reinforced retaining railroad ties, and updated front door hardware all in addition to over $40,000 in new siding.

The interior has been refreshed throughout with luxury vinyl flooring, fresh paint, updated doors, recessed lighting with dimmers, new switches and outlet covers, and numerous designer touches. The foyer welcomes you with custom wainscoting, while the living room features built-in bookcases, decorative wall detailing, a resurfaced fireplace with updated tile and mantel, and new flooring. The dining room offers cedar accent walls, updated lighting, and new flooring.

The remodeled kitchen showcases resurfaced countertops, painted cabinetry, tile backsplash, new sink, updated lighting, under-cabinet outlets, new hardware, and custom mudroom paneling. Seller also completed repairs that included replacement of damaged framing members, drywall, and other components in areas where wood rot had been identified.

Upstairs, the staircase has been updated with new flooring, tile risers, railings, and lighting. Secondary bedrooms feature updated flooring and finishes, while one bedroom was reconfigured with a new closet, built-in bookcases, and enclosed loft area. The primary suite includes updated flooring, refreshed finishes, and replacement of a plumbing pipe beneath the foundation. Both bathrooms have been updated with new flooring, lighting, hardware, and refreshed finishes.

Additional highlights include a dedicated “cloffice” with new HVAC ductwork and ceiling fan, creating a flexible space for working from home. Extensive seller updates make this home truly move-in ready while preserving its original charm.
