This quintessential 1950s Oakmont Heights bungalow sits proudly on a spacious corner lot, blending classic charm with modern convenience. The original structure boasts rich period details, from its beautiful long leaf pine floors to the timeless Craftsman-style trim, while the remodeled kitchen brings a modern touch that flows seamlessly into open living and dining areas. A mid-90s expansion elevated this 2-bedroom, 1-bath gem into a spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath retreat, adding a dining room, generous primary suite on the second level, and an oversized 2-car garage — all tailored for today’s lifestyle. Outdoors, the large backyard is perfect for entertaining with a fun, partially covered patio, hassle-free turf, and plenty of space to unwind or host. Just steps from The Grove, you’re a short walk to vibrant spots like Verdad, Carve, and other new favorites. Plus, 35th Street shopping and the iconic Central Market are right around the corner, putting you moments from the best of Austin dining and retail. Don’t miss out on calling this unique bungalow your home!
