Welcome to Allandale living at its best, where tree-lined streets, large lots, and everyday convenience come together in one of Central Austins most beloved neighborhoods. This beautifully updated home blends classic Austin charm, like original wood floors and big windows, with smart, attractive modern improvements. Filled with natural light, the original living space offers the perfect setting for conversation, a quiet reading retreat, or a secondary lounge surrounded by the greenery and natural character that make Allandale so special. The thoughtfully integrated addition introduces a grand living area with soaring vaulted ceilings, creating a dramatic sense of openness and scale. The layout seamlessly connects the kitchen, where long stretches of counter space provide plenty of room for multiple cooks, to the large main living area. A three-panel, sliding glass French door and a clerestory window provide abundant natural light and lead to a serene elevated outdoor deck that overlooks the spacious backyard, all under the vast, shady canopy of a tall pecan tree. Organic gardens line the back yard, along with Anacacho Orchid, peach, and orange trees. Location is one more powerful attribute of this home, which is just minutes from MoPac, and a short commute to both downtown and the Domain. The property is zoned to excellent, highly desired schools, including Gullett Elementary, Lamar Middle School (both walking distance) and McCallum Fine Arts Academy High School. And it's just a short walk to the thriving Burnet Road corridor for quick access to some of Austin's favorite local restaurants, coffee shops, and legendary neighborhood staples, from the Allandale HEB to the Little Longhorn and Top Notch Burger.
