$650,000
2 Bed 2 Bath 1,031 sqft $630/sqft Built 1955 0.15 acres Pool West View Heights

Set in the heart of Brentwood, this thoughtfully reimagined residence was extensively renovated in 2015 by Sarah Stacey and featured on HGTV Renovations, blending timeless character with elevated modern living. Originally built in 1955, the 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers a beautifully efficient 1,031-square-foot floor plan that lives far larger than its footprint. Refinished oak hardwood floors flow throughout the home, while the open-concept kitchen was designed for both effortless entertaining and everyday functionality.

The primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bath and generous walk-in closet. Thoughtful updates provide peace of mind and modern convenience, including replacement of the original cast iron plumbing with PVC piping in 2018, new plumbing lines, a new roof installed in 2022, and a new privacy fence completed in 2023. Outdoors, an expansive deck creates the perfect setting for entertaining or enjoying quiet evenings under the Austin sky, complemented by a detached storage shed and mature landscaping.

Ideally located just minutes from Brentwood’s beloved restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and grocery stores, with easy access to Downtown Austin and The Domain, this move-in-ready home offers the perfect balance of classic charm, thoughtful design, and modern updates in one of Austin’s most sought-after neighborhoods.

At $630/sqft, this home is priced 61% above the Austin active market average of $391/sqft, reflecting premium positioning, typically tied to finishes, lot, location, or view. View Austin market report →
