About This Home
***French-Inspired Architectural Gem in East Austin*** Discover a French-inspired residence where timeless character meets modern Austin living. This custom-built 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home in historic Swede Hill blends craftsmanship and creativity at every turn. A double galley front porch with Bevelo French Quarter gas lanterns and wrought iron railings sets the tone for what is inside, with interiors curated using reclaimed materials and bold artistry. Original long-leaf pine floors and House of Hackney wall coverings create warmth and personality, while the decorative fireplace adds a touch of history. The main level features a light-filled, conservatory-style kitchen and dining area with custom wood cabinetry, a white brick backsplash, a library ladder, and abundant storage. The home’s multi-level design connects seamlessly to a hidden laundry area, a flexible office space, and a striking open layout that flows into the upper-level retreat. Upstairs, a loft connects two private bedroom suites. The primary offers glass-detailed bar doors, Restoration Hardware bath furnishings, and a spacious walk-in shower. The secondary suite features a hand-burnished Penhaglion clawfoot tub, private balcony, and spiral staircase entry. Outdoors, a lush courtyard shaded by heritage live oaks features a cowboy pool that is perfect for quiet mornings or laid-back entertaining. The finished garage is currently enclosed as an additional living space, offering flexibility to suit tenant needs. The garage can be restored for parking, and the EV charger can be installed at the exterior carport upon request. Eco-conscious features include solar panels, rainwater collection, and Milgard fiberglass windows for energy efficiency. Located within walking distance to downtown Austin, Waterloo Park, Moody Amphitheater, UT Dell Medical School, and the State Capitol, this residence captures the spirit of East Austin living with style, sustainability, and a true sense of place.

Central East Austin is named exactly for what it is – a neighborhood slightly east of Downtown Austin but still central to all city amenities.
The community contains a local elementary and middle school, as well as the campus of Huston-Tillotson University. Just north of the neighborhood, you’ll find another university – maybe you’ve heard of it? The University of Texas at Austin campus is close by, just a short drive from the George Washington Carver Museum.
Locals and business professionals enjoy the dining options on East 11th Street and Rosewood Avenue, like Franklin Barbecue that’s only open for lunch. In addition to their Central East Austin apartments, locals are comforted by their direct access to Interstate 35.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
