Built in 1939, this home in South Austin’s Zilker neighborhood has retained the unique, casual essence of the original, particularly with its bright-green paint and leafy lot shaded by big trees.

The home also has crown molding and hardwood or slate floors throughout. The remodel includes custom fixtures, stainless steel appliances, designer paint, and the installation of low-maintenance xeriscaping, as well as what looks like the addition of a number of large windows.

The home is located off South Lamar Boulevard, not far from the Broken Spoke, so it’s convenient to lots of shopping and entertainment in the area; at the same time, it’s tucked away on a side street among houses of similar size and character, just far enough from hustle and bustle.
