Property Description
1706 Pennsylvania Avenue is a thoughtfully updated home that retains original period details such as glass doorknobs, artisan built-ins, and elegant Tiffany lighting. With an unbeatable location—just minutes from downtown, the airport, UT stadiums, and within walking distance to vibrant local cafes, nightlife, and major Austin events like SXSW—this residence offers a rare opportunity to enjoy historic character in one of the city’s most dynamic neighborhoods. The interior was renovated in 2019, reimagining each space with luxurious finishes and elevated design. Two spacious bedrooms feature ample natural light. The spa-inspired bathrooms are outfitted with marble vanities and showers, premium fixtures, and thoughtful touches. The gourmet kitchen is ideal for home chefs, complete with high-end stainless appliances and a gas range. Designed with comfort and entertaining in mind, the open-concept living and dining areas are warm and welcoming, anchored by vintage lighting and a curated library. Outdoors, a covered front porch leads to a sprawling backyard oasis featuring a lit deck with dining and lounge spaces and a biergarten—perfect for gathering under the stars. Ideal as a full-time residence, guest house, or investment property in the heart of Austin. Tax and assessed values are estimates for illustration purposes only.
