Absolutely charming classic cottage perched on a hilltop along one of the most coveted streets in iconic Travis Heights, showcasing breathtaking, direct skyline views of downtown Austin. This one-of-a-kind home captures the true spirit of Old Austin with timeless character and an unbeatable setting. A stone-capped stairway welcomes you to a shady, tree-canopied double front deck, the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee while soaking in panoramic city views that stretch for miles. The home is rich with vintage charm, featuring a rare custom-cut Austin limestone surround—a craftsmanship detail that’s no longer replicated—alongside original hardwood floors, tall wood-inlay ceilings, and a stunning blend of wood and stone interior walls. Large casement windows flood the space with natural light, enhancing the home’s warm, nostalgic feel. Major updates have already been completed, offering peace of mind, including roof (approx. 5 years), HVAC (6 years), water heater (3 years), deck repaint (2 years), and a beautifully remodeled bathroom (3 years). Additional covered space provides excellent storage or future expansion potential, whether off the side or rear of the home. The location is simply unmatched—rarely do properties offer this combination of charm, elevation, and views. Just a short walk brings you to Stacy Park and its year-round pool, while only a few blocks away lies the vibrant heart of South Congress, home to some of Austin’s most beloved destinations including Perla's, Guero's Taco Bar, Magnolia Cafe, Joann's Fine Foods, Habana, Lucky Robot Sushi, Jo's Coffee, and Kendra Scott. Enjoy a quick ride to Barton Springs Pool and Zilker Park for swimming, hiking, paddleboarding, and world-famous events like SXSW and Austin City Limits Music Festival. Nearby favorites like Butler Pitch & Putt and Peter Pan Mini Golf add even more local charm. This is more than just a home—it’s a rare opportunity to own a piece of classic Austin, with incredible views, unmatched character, and a location that truly defines the lifestyle.
