Situated in the storied neighborhood of Judge’s Hill, this charming residence is a rare gem that combines modern comforts with historical appeal, just steps from the UT Austin campus, Pease Park, and Downtown Austin. Built in 1990 with design elements thoughtfully paying homage to its historical surroundings, this home was updated in 2015 to enhance its timeless allure. The curb appeal is inviting with the home’s welcoming wrap-around porch offering a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the sunset. Inside, tall ceilings, and rich hardwood floors flow throughout the main areas, leading through light-filled interiors to the island kitchen, equipped with marble countertops, Wolf and KitchenAid appliances, and a generous corner access pantry.  The kitchen opens seamlessly into an expanded living area anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace and beautiful built ins gracing an entire wall.
 
 
From here, French doors lead to a covered porch perfect for entertaining in the shaded back yard.  Back inside, two separate dining areas, a versatile main-floor office/guest room and full bathroom plus a powder room add convenience, while upstairs, the primary suite and two additional bedrooms with two bathrooms provide ample space. The primary bath has been enlarged to include a dual vanity with a makeup counter, a separate walk-in shower, an elegant claw foot tub, a private water closet, and a stackable laundry closet.  Bathed in natural light, the home offers a floorplan ideal for gatherings and functions easily as either a primary home, or a lock and leave. Additional features include a two-car garage with alley access, generous attic storage, and walkability that can’t be beat.
 
 
Established in the mid 1800’s by prominent Judge Elijah Robertson, this stately neighborhood became so popular with his peers that it was given the moniker - Judge’s Hill – that remains its namesake today.  Recognized in 1851 as “Austin’s Original City Neighborhood”, Judge’s Hill sits on a bluff overlooking Pease Park, just north of Austin’s central business district, and south of the University of Texas at Austin.  This small, unique neighborhood features some of Austin’s oldest estates along with mid-century modern and craftsman-style homes.  It is a much-loved jewel in central Austin, and a sought after locale for those who know Austin’s history.
