Description
Charming 1949 Cherrywood Home with Endless Possibilities!
Nestled on a private corner lot, this classic 3-bedroom, 1-bath Cherrywood home offers a unique blend of character and versatility. A standout feature is the custom three-part attached covered carport—one section large enough for an RV or boat, while another provides a shaded outdoor dining area. Plenty of parking for friends and family!
This property presents an incredible opportunity to live or invest in the highly sought-after Cherrywood neighborhood. With the potential to divide the lot or add ADUs (see attached Land Use report), the possibilities for remodeling or redevelopment are endless.
Inside, you'll find mini-split wall units for efficient heating and cooling, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a charming dining area. The converted garage offers flexibility as a third bedroom or office space.
Outside, mature trees provide shade and privacy, while garden beds and green spaces attract wildlife like birds and fireflies. A wired shed adds extra functionality.
Recent updates offer peace of mind, including a new roof (2024), mini-split systems (2020) with a 10-year warranty, an updated electrical panel (2022), new front windows (2021), and a gas heater backup (2020).
Ideally located within walking distance to green spaces like Mueller Lake and Patterson Park, as well as local coffee shops and eateries—the benefits of living near Mueller while still enjoying the privacy and space of a private yard. A short Uber or bike ride gets you to Downtown Austin, with easy access to Eastside attractions—without crossing I-35! Plus, you're conveniently equidistant to two HEB locations.
Don't miss this rare opportunity in one of Austin's most desirable neighborhoods!
