Saturday morning in South Austin usually starts the same way. You walk out the door, decide between Switchback Coffee & Beer or Praxis Coffee Roasters & by the time you're back, the dog has already made friends with somebody on the sidewalk. This spot is tucked into Oak Valley Park, where the trees have been here long enough to give real shade across the street. Out front, you get that classic brick & a low roofline. Out back, a great-sized yard & detached workshop round out the space nicely. Inside, the ceiling opens up. The living room has a vaulted ceiling and a white brick fireplace, & sliding doors pull in enough afternoon light that you won't turn a lamp on until dinner. The kitchen is fully updated with a view of the living room. Cook & be part of the conversation. The home has been updated throughout in all the ways you’ve been searching for! The kitchen, bathrooms, and wide-plank flooring allow you to move in & just start living! Then the fantastic bonus or flex room, with a separate front entrance off the driveway. With tons of natural light, you can use this space as a workout room, home office, crafts room, music room, or 2nd living area. The possibilities are endless! Out back, the covered porch is where you’ll enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktails. The workshop keeps the mower & bikes out of sight, & the yard is fully fenced so the dog or kids can roam while you kick back & relax! Mary Moore Searight Metropolitan Park anchors the weekends. Trails, open space, room to let the dog run. Bauerle Ranch and Canterbury Trails are closer when you want twenty minutes outside before dinner. District Kitchen + Cocktails and Satellite ATX are easy calls on nights you don't cook, and Oasthouse Kitchen + Bar is where you sit outside & stay a while. Moontower Saloon & Armadillo Den are the picnic-table-and-live-music version of a night out. Here, you’ve got trails & parks close by, neighbors who wave & remember your dog’s name, & patios just a stroll away!
