Property Details

Delightful 1950 Brentwood home blends the perfect balance of charm and comfort. Situated on a well-maintained .18-acre lot home with mature trees and flora, this home creates a peaceful and serene atmosphere right in the heart of town! With 1000 square feet of living space, this cozy abode offers two ample-sized bedrooms and one full bath. As you step inside, you'll immediately be drawn to the original hardwood floors that extend throughout the home, as well as the full wall of double-pane windows that allow natural light to flood every room. The living and dining rooms provide a comfortable space to relax and unwind with friends on game night. Tranquil screened porch with peaceful views of the quiet and private backyard. This charming Brentwood cottage is a true gem in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Central Austin. Bonus detached garage that is currently being used as a workout studio and can easily be converted back to a parking structure. Plenty of additional parking in the back and along the deep driveway. Walkable to the newly constructed Brentwood Elementary School and near highly-rated Lamar MS, and McCallum High. Minutes to coffee shops, eateries, shopping centers, grocery stores, and more. Don't miss this opportunity to snatch up an Austin original.
