IF you are a ready-to-act buyer who has been waiting for the chance to live in the "charm district" of Austin, this may be the house that causes you to take immediate action.

While small, you will be very hard pressed to find such a nice home in this exclusive neighborhood for under $400,000. The layout has two bedrooms, one-and-a-half baths and about 1,285 square feet (per records at the Travis County Appraisal District). Recent improvements include a new roof which was replaced last summer, an updated exterior, new landscaping, and an expanded deck area.

Expensive Hardwood Floors
Glance at the photographs and you can get an idea of all the work that has been done inside--most of the flooring is comprised of hardwoods. These are NOT the inexpensive thin kind either--these are the "old style" thick plank floors that display the rich, swirling grain pattern for which oak is known.

A massive, six-burner stove anchors the kitchen area along with updated lighting and granite countertops.

Private Pool Setting
But there is more. The current owners have also added a large sun deck that overlooks the pool and private back yard setting.

Live here, and you can look forward to the following scenario after a long week at the office: You launch "Operation Recharge." This begins by you sleeping in on Saturday morning until you feel like getting up. You begin with fresh coffee and the newspaper out on the deck. Early Saturday afternoon, you can head over to Central Market and load up on nothing but comfort food--chips, salsa, some sweets, and be sure to pick up a couple of good steaks and salad along with your favorite wine and beer. When you get home, ice down those adult beverages on the deck. Open all of the back doors and windows, and fire up your favorite music. Ask your significant other to dance (hardwood floors are great for slow dancing). As the sun sets, light yard torches, and go for a swim under a star-filled sky (the perimeter of the back yard is enshrouded with a wall of bamboo). Afterwards, you can grill steaks and watch movies.

That was just Saturday. If you are feeling really ambitious on Sunday, you might hop on to the hike-and-bike trails along Lady Bird lake, or cruise the SoCo district and art venues. Or, you could just hit the rewind button and use Sunday to repeat what you did on Saturday.

It is thrilling to live so close to the heart of Austin's restaurant, music and entertainment districts. As an added bonus, this lot is more than 170' (most lots in this area are often only 110' deep), so there is room to expand the house in the future (subject to building codes). In fact, architect plans that would expand the house to just over 2,250 sq. ft. are available from the current owners by request.

This is your chance to get a cozy home in the heart of Tarrytown, and much of the updating is already in place. If the size and price are a fit, call now for an appointment.
