Property Description
Welcome to this updated 1920s bungalow that blends historic charm with modern functionality. This turnkey 3-bedroom, 2-bath home has been thoughtfully renovated while preserving the character that makes it so special. The iconic front porch and swing welcome you into a warm living room anchored by a double-sided fireplace that opens to the formal dining room. The kitchen is designed for gathering with a butcher block island, ample counter space, and a conveniently located utility room. The spacious primary suite is a rare find, featuring a large walk-in closet, dual vanities, and freestanding shower. Two additional guest bedrooms with good closet space. Outside, enjoy a newly installed pool, covered deck, and tropical banana trees that create a private backyard oasis. A detached 2-car garage, automatic gate, and fully fenced yard add convenience. In the heart of Woodland Heights and zoned to Travis, you'll love the walkability to coffee shops, restaurants, parks, shopping, and more.
