Set on a quiet, interior tree-lined street in the heart of Allandale, this charming 1960s home has been thoughtfully remodeled and expanded. A comprehensive 2022 renovation introduced a spacious new primary suite, wide-plank wood flooring throughout, and beautifully updated kitchen and living areas, where a lofted ceiling adds both height and character. Behind the scenes, significant system upgrades include a tankless water heater, new HVAC, and a standing seam metal roof (2025), offering peace of mind for years to come. Step outside to the most picturesque screened-in porch overlooking a backyard shaded by towering oak trees. The outdoor space features a pool with heating and cooling capabilities, an automatic cover for added safety, and beautifully refreshed landscaping with Zoysia Zorro turf, a paver patio, cedar pool deck, irrigation system, and new gutters (2023–2024) — creating a truly turnkey backyard retreat. The property also includes architectural plans for a future expansion above the garage, offering the opportunity to add a playroom and two additional bedrooms. Located within Austin ISD and just moments from neighborhood favorites like Chez Zee American Bistro, Russell’s Bakery & Coffee, Yamas Greek Kitchen + Bar, and the vibrant shops and dining along Burnet Road, this home offers the very best of Allandale living.
