Sweet East Austin starter home asks $320K

While modest, this sweet, small home tucked into a corner of East Austin’s Cherrywood neighborhood near Airport Boulevard and Manor Road, has been remodeled and well-staged and looks like an excellent opportunity to get into the neighborhood at a not-unreasonable price.

Built in 1948, the clapboard home has its original hardwood floors, large windows, and a new HVAC system. Measuring a compact 810 square feet, it has two bedrooms and one bathroom.

The supercute formal dining room is a refreshing break from open-plan kitchen/living area combos.

The inviting kitchen displays the 1940s roots to good advantage.

A stripped-down aesthetic works well in the limited bedroom and bathroom space.

A private backyard features covered and uncovered patios, some lovely geenery, and a storage building.
