About This Home

Listing agent is related to sellers. Own a piece of Austin history! One of the first houses (lot 1, block 1!) built in Travis Heights (with lumber from Calcasieu Lumber Co!), this true American (Bungalow/)Arts and Crafts Style home was built in 1913 (when Travis Heights opened!) and has been lovingly cared for, maintained and tastefully (partially) updated in keeping the historic charm. Outside, you'll see historic arts and crafts colors, terra cotta wooden brackets (along the roof line), a traditional partial wrap around porch, true-to-era shingles and gutter system and two amazing heritage oaks (between 300-500 years old). Inside you'll find the ORIGINAL long leaf pine flooring throughout most of the home, beautiful original crown moulding and stain, a gorgeous built in China cabinet/buffet in the dining room. The updated kitchen marries historic design details with modern comforts, including granite counters (mined from Granite Shoals, TX), custom cabinetry, deep farm house cast-iron sink complete with apron, beverage fridge and Bosch dishwasher. The downstairs bathroom was updated with a unique (and GORGEOUS) European shower, true-to-era tiles and happy d sink (Duravit, a German brand). Other incredible original details to note: the window pulls, door knobs, builtin cabinet hardware and pulls, transoms above the upstairs bedroom doors, the door bell, exposed shiplap walls, the beadboard details in the stairwell and builtin China cabinet, the original fireplace (does not work) and so much more. A literal stones throw away from Downtown Austin, the River, and everywhere you want to be in Austin! Little Stacy Park is a walk away, neighborhood gem Stacy Pool is a quick drive or bike ride. Basically abut to Town Lake hike and bike trails/the boardwalk. This house is truly an Austin treasure!

What is the Travis Heights neighborhood like?

Travis Heights and South River City are adjacent historic neighborhoods located in south Austin, bounded by Lady Bird Lake on the north, Interstate 35 on the east, Congress Avenue on the west, and Oltorf Street on the south. The neighborhood's development accelerated following the 1910 completion of the Congress Avenue Bridge, a 910-foot structure spanning Lady Bird Lake that became iconic for its Mexican free-tailed bat colony, home to nearly 1.5 million bats that perform nightly emergence flights visible from the bridge during spring and fall months. Significant residential growth occurred in the 1920s when General William Harwood Stacy and his sons began planned development of the area, establishing the neighborhood's original street grid and lot sizes. Travis Heights became Austin's first Local Historic District south of the river in 1981, with the Travis Heights-Fairview Park Historic District subsequently added to the National Register of Historic Places in July 2021, providing formal recognition of the neighborhood's architectural and historical significance. The median home price in Travis Heights is approximately $920,000, though prices vary considerably across the neighborhood's mix of historic estates, traditional residences, and modern apartments ranging from $600,000 to over $1.5 million depending on size, condition, and location.
