Description
Updated one-story 1930 brick Tudor Revival home with a separate cottage located in the heart of the Hancock neighborhood near the University of Texas. The primary residence underwent extensive renovation, including a complete interior reconstruction, in 2023. Designed by the current owner/architect, the floor plan was reconfigured to create a light-filled open living/dining/kitchen area with a vaulted ceiling and a main hallway leading to three bedrooms and two baths. The home features white oak flooring throughout, custom built-ins, and ample storage. A focal point of the home is the gorgeous kitchen with custom walnut kitchen cabinets, quartz countertops, Bosch and Fisher & Paykel built-in appliances, and a concealed coffee nook. The front bedroom, which includes a built-in desk and bookcases, is ideal for use as a home office. The primary bedroom features a private ensuite bath and a large walk-in closet. This all-electric home enjoys low utility bills due to the energy efficient windows, foam insulation and high efficiency equipment and appliances. The detached cottage is a versatile space that can be used as a guest suite, home office, game room, or other purposes. The cottage features an open layout with a partial kitchen, a full bathroom with a tile shower, and a closet. The front yard is landscaped with native and drought-tolerant plants and features a drip-irrigation system. The shaded backyard is enclosed with an iron fence and offers convenient alley access. The large lot, measuring 50’ x 140’, provides ample space for the addition of a two-car garage and an ADU. Conceptual floor plans and site plans are available upon request.
