Charming 1934 Downtown Bungalow with Two Separate Living Dwellings for Approx. 2,160 SF Total This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved 1934 bungalow just steps from the heart of downtown Austin. This unique property offers two separate living dwellings, blending timeless character with modern functionality. The front/main residence spans approximately 1,160 square feet and features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Rich in historic charm and this home showcases original woodwork and classic architectural details that reflect the craftsmanship of the era. Includes modern updates like Central AC and ductwork, full size washer dryer, center island and lots of natural light. Tucked behind the main home, the secondary unit offers two bedrooms and two full bathrooms with an open-concept living area designed for modern living. Highlights include a center island, pendant lighting, contemporary finishes, and a full-size washer and dryer. Both units enjoy the convenience of their own one car garage, private enclosed yard spaces, and the added comfort of enhanced security with a custom wrought-iron gated entry with remote or code access for both vehicle and pedestrian entry to the property. This level of privacy and security is rarely found in downtown Austin. Located just one block from South Congress, with easy access to downtown shops, restaurants, entertainment, and the newly remodeled H-E-B on South 1st Street, this property sits in one of Austin’s most desirable and walkable neighborhoods. A fantastic investment opportunity to hold long term or owner occupy the front home while offsetting your mortgage with rental income from the back unit at strong market rental rates.
