Whether for game days at UT, weekends on South Congress, or simply as a private Austin escape, this home feels as practical as it is enchanting. A custom-made front door with vintage hardware opens to interiors where master-craftsman crown molding, hand-carved beams, and antique lighting meet thoughtful updates. This one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home has been fully reimagined in recent years, boasting all-new systems—HVAC with updated ducts and vents, electrical panel and wiring, plumbing lines, spray foam insulation, and a tankless hot water heater—creating a lifestyle of lock-and-leave ease. The living room’s faux beams and dual-glazed picture window invite natural light, while the kitchen is outfitted with marble backsplash, instant hot water filtration, and Sub-Zero refrigeration. The bedroom is crowned by an open-beamed ceiling with a rewired antique chandelier, brass sconces, and custom shades, with crystal Baldwin hardware adding elegance. Every finish, from marble to wood counters to the carefully curated fixtures, strikes a balance between historic charm and modern ease. Outside, you’ll find a gated section tucked away for your storage needs. Cedar siding offers timeless curb appeal. Travis Heights is one of Austin’s most beloved neighborhoods, walkable to South Congress and the Lady Bird Lake trail, minutes to Downtown and the airport. If you’re looking to fly in, settle in, and start enjoying Austin right away (whether you’re here for a long weekend, game day, or just your favorite season), this home is designed to make it effortless.
