Welcome to 2124 Bluebonnet where history and Austin cool meet with beautiful ease in the heart of Zilker! A featured house on the Preservation Austin tour, Austin Monthly, and Tribeza, this home dripping with historic charm sits at the footsteps of Barton Springs, Zilker Park, and the vibrant 78704 lifestyle.
Starting with the lovely antebellum front porch there is much to appreciate beyond a rich past. Built in 1922 and nestled on a massive ⅓ of an acre, there have only been six owners, each of whom have purposefully left the history of this home intact or uncovered more of it such as gorgeous long-leaf pine walls, beadboard ceilings, timeless carpentry, and much more.
Not to be outdone by the timeless beauty it offers, the home is wonderfully suited to modern day living needs. Bedrooms are pleasantly oversized, a feature seldom found in Colonial Revival or Craftsman homes. A huge kitchen and dining space allows for endless entertaining or gatherings. Two generous living spaces separated for privacy provide optionality for an amazing media/gameroom experience and a separate office with full kitchen is an ideal setting for today’s ever present work-from-home needs.
Beyond the lovely front porch that spans the front of the home, there is a mirrored second-story porch which could easily be made accessible from the master bedroom. Combined with a classic widows walk on the third floor, spectacular downtown views are at one's fingertips everyday. The front yard could easily be fenced for additional entertainment space and a separate large private yard is perfect for an ADU, pool or simply more play space.
Just two blocks away vibrant Little Zilker Park which sits right next to sought after ZIlker Elementary offers community connection with a fun doggie park, tennis/pickleball courts, basketball courts and playscapes for the little ones. Barton Springs, trails and Zilker Park are a 5 min bike ride offering endless outdoor and entertaining options.
