Property Details for 8906 Capitol Drive, Austin, TX 78753

Vintage gem in a hidden pocket neighborhood that feels magically located to outwit traffic clogs. Vibes like a Travis Heights, Clarksville or Hyde Park pre-war home with extra high exposed wood ceilings, giant windows and gorgeous wood floors. Includes a casita space across the carport (used as an office at present). Also available for your most ambitious projects is a dedicated storage area and a large stand-alone workshop/greenhouse. As is only proper for a vintage home, there are covered front and back porches. Owners have loved this home with the central dining area, kitchen flex space, and large fenced backyard ideally arranged for hosting gatherings both large and small. Many updates including: metal roof with 6’ gutter (2022), 16 SEER high-efficiency AC and furnace (2020), updated insulation (2020), updated-to-PVC drain line (2020), tankless water heater (2018), and foundation work (2018). Style updates include amazing tile work in bath, saltillo tile and freestanding workstation in kitchen. Close to so much including Ramen Tatsu-ya, fantastic taquerias, Domain shopping, Q2 Stadium, HEB, and a tricked-out YMCA. Owners lovingly call their home “the casita”. Maybe it is a magic casita? Offering the trifecta of: vintage charm, in Austin, under $500,000.
