Description
Within Austin’s vibrant Hyde Park community, this beautifully updated 1930s bungalow blends classic charm with a modern, two-story addition. A rare combination of character, space, and convenience, the house sits on a large lot shaded by several heritage live oaks and other trees, offering a private backyard retreat close to some of North Hyde Park’s most iconic local spots. A short stroll brings you to Home Slice Pizza, Jewboy Burgers, Flightpath Coffee, The Peddler Bike Shop, and the neighborhood favorite Duval Market. Commuting and exploring the city is effortless with quick access to IH-35, the Mueller district, and a 20-minute bus or bike ride to UT Austin. Numerous updates ensure comfort and peace of mind. The roof was replaced in 2021, and the home features modern windows -- including eight Pella windows recently installed last year. The HVAC unit for the original part of the home was replaced in December 2025, complementing the second system installed in 2016 for the remodeled addition. The kitchen is move-in ready with contemporary appliances, and the home is pre-wired with fiber drops for both Google Fiber and AT&T high-speed internet. A standout feature is the spacious, second-floor, primary suite that offers a serene, private escape among the treetops. Another is the spacious backyard with sizable storage building. Combined with the original bungalow’s warmth and character, this property delivers historic charm, modern comfort, and an unbeatable location in one of Austin’s most cherished neighborhoods.
