Straight Out of Mad Men – A Perfectly Preserved Midcentury Time Capsule in the Heart of South Austin This home is the real deal – a rare, beautifully preserved single-story midcentury modern gem that looks like it was pulled straight from a period movie set. From the moment you… Read More step inside, you're immersed in authentic 1960s style, from the flawless mint and pink bathroom fixtures to the vibrant red countertops, warm wood cabinetry, and vintage wood paneling throughout. It’s the kind of place vintage lovers dream about – completely untouched by time, yet meticulously maintained. Whether you're a midcentury enthusiast looking for period-correct perfection or someone craving a home with character and soul, this one delivers. Set on a spacious corner lot (0.2487 AC)at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, just a short stroll from the legendary Broken Spoke and all the legendary restaurants that trace South Lamar from Matt's El Rancho to Uchi and Odd Duck, the location couldn’t be better. The fully fenced yard offers privacy and space, and there's excellent potential for sweeping Greenbelt views—especially with a second-story addition. Buyers should carefully review the floor plan: a rare oversized two-car garage (a true luxury for a home of this era) features tall ceilings and ample space for larger vehicles or workshop needs. Plus, a large laundry room off the garage could easily be reincorporated into the interior square footage to expand the home’s livable space. Whether you’re looking to preserve the home’s retro charm, create your dream vintage showplace, or explore redevelopment potential, this property offers endless opportunity and inspiration. Read Less
