1208 Chestnut Avenue, Austin

HISTORIC URBAN COTTAGE ON PRIVATE LOT FIVE MINUTES FROM UT AND DOWNTOWN. Lovingly restored by owner-occupants who have planted trees, painted, replaced the porch steps and railing and the hot water heater, fully upgraded the electrical system, installed an HVAC system and remodeled the kitchen and bathroom. Furnished and accessorized. New washer/dryer. Hoover vacuum cleaner with HEPA filter. Metal roof, double-pane windows and solar screens keep the bills low. Enjoy the big front porch and the fenced backyard with flowering trees and a moontower view. Take the bike lane to Lady Bird Lake or walk to the Boggy Creek Greenbelt or Chestnut Pocket Park. Nearby amenities in this hip, historic and imminently walkable neighborhood include restaurants Roland’s Soul Food, Nixta Taqueria, El Chilito, and Mi Madre’s and coffeehouses El Tigre, Bennu and Thunderbird.
