Description
Sitting on an 8,445 square foot corner lot on the sought-after Eastside of Austin, this unique property is ready for someone to make it their lifetime dream home. Located just 12 minutes from Austin Bergstrom Airport. A walk/bike ride to nearby coffee shops and the East 12th District as well as easy access to transit makes this a must see!
This unique compound has two in one living situations. It includes a charming 1950’s post-war cottage house. In 2020 a sleek apartment and office was built on the property and is income-producing.
This domicile is the personal home of well-known Austin restaurant designer Mickie Spencer. These homes each have special artisan touches that are one-of-a-kind from her creative repertoire. Entering the cottage, charm abounds with renovations that compliment the era. Stepping through the front door you enter a large open room that is now a dining/kitchen combo. A deep farmhouse sink is flanked by more countertops and spacious, tall glass fronted cabinets that are painted a hacienda blue. The light over the sink is also her creation and faces a beautiful courtyard with fountain.
The family room has skylights, an arched window, and four sets of French doors. The primary bedroom has a large window with a view of rows of bamboo. The bathroom that accompanies this room was recently added with Saltillo tile and colorful Moroccan tiles. A large shower and mid-century chest that holds a contemporary sink with a large mirror completes this room.
A middle hall bathroom features a large round window. A clawfoot tub sits beneath it.
Towering in the back of the property is a sleek modern-styled, red-tiled roofed apartment. The apartment has one bedroom downstairs with a wrap-around garden and upstairs is a large office/studio/workspace with full bath.
This property has so much more to see!
