Austin, TX 78704
This Peaceful Treehouse in the City in historic Travis Heights was designed & built by the seller, one of Austin’s 1st female builders. Limestone steps move through a lush landscape to an IPE deck & stairs to the 2nd floor entry & the heart of this home; a breathtaking, yet calming, main room with oak floors, soaring ceiling, full surround of windows, bookcase wall & 2-story limestone fireplace. A tree sheltered deck is perfect for morning coffee or evening dining. A quiet corner nook with exposed wood ceiling serves as library/office. Circle through to pass a utility/WD closet, full bath & to a functional kitchen with handcrafted cabinets, commercial range, & southern sun pouring through a bay window. Then head to the upper hall bathed in natural light, with blond pine floors & stone fireplace. The circular flow offers a primary bedroom with 3-sides windows, walk in closet, fireplace, high ceiling & balcony. The shared bath leads to a sunny 2nd bedroom. Downstairs, the south side’s 1st floor holds a hobby/office or 3rd bedroom, 2-car garage & 2nd home entry. The 1st floor front holds a 1BR/BA apt, W/D & huge windows looking out to the creek; providing a steady income stream or a comfortable, private space for guests/family. The multitude of spaces allows for an array of uses, which at every position in the home, envelops you in natural light, wood & limestone elements, & views out to lush greenery. Outside, walk a few steps to Blunn Creek, Little Stacy Park & meander through the greenbelt trail amidst an architecturally varied, walkable neighborhood a few blocks south to Big Stacy Pool fed by a natural geothermal well. A few blocks East you’re on South Congress & Northward you’re on the boardwalk hike/bike trail. The 1957sf main home & 425sf apartment sits on a double lot with plenty of expansion room. Just off Riverside betw. I-35 & Congress, it provides easy access to a full array offered by the heart of Austin. Truly a wonderful place to call home.
