About this home
The Historic Austin House! ~ Steeped in history and thoughtfully updated for modern living, The Historic Austin House is a rare Bastrop gem. Believed to have been built prior to 1887, as shown on Bastrop’s Birds Eye View dated 1887 and Sanborn Insurance maps, this home originally served as an annex to the Hoppe/Exchange/Turner Hotels before being relocated in approximately 1912 to its current corner lot on Austin and Water Streets, where it operated as a boarding house. Set on 0.213 acres beneath towering pecan trees, the property blends historic charm with extensive updates. Renovated in 2007 and extensively improved by current owners starting in 2021, upgrades include energy-efficient windows and a beautifully expanded kitchen, bringing the home to approximately 2387 square feet. The kitchen is designed for both function and style, featuring a Kucht 6-burner gas range, Whirlpool stainless refrigerator, quartz countertops, farmhouse sink, abundant cabinetry with pull-outs, and a large island with breakfast bar. A butler’s pantry connects to a half bath and utility room. The main-level primary bedroom offers convenience, while three guest bedrooms are upstairs. All bathrooms have been updated with modern finishes. The foyer, inspired by a dog-run design, offers flexible space for formal dining or a baby grand piano. The spacious living room opens to a screened porch, with an upstairs balcony above. Outdoors, enjoy custom landscaped grounds with climbing confederate jasmine, vanilla bush, Japanese maple and planter boxes on the back porch for growing fresh herbs, . Additional features include an insulated oversized two-car garage with mini-split HVAC and 240V power for a dryer or potential EV charger, plus a two-car carport. Ideally located within walking distance to Main Street, dining, shopping, the library, and the Riverwalk trail leading to Fisherman’s Park and the Colorado River....
