Nestled in the charming pocket neighborhood of Sherwood Oaks in South Austin’s beloved 78704 zip code, this beautifully updated 5-bedroom home offers the perfect blend of warmth, character, functionality, and thoughtful modern improvements. Inside, extensive renovations and upgrades over the last four years elevate every space. The fully remodeled kitchen serves as the heart of the home, featuring a large center island, breakfast bar, upgraded finishes, abundant storage, and a stunning picture-window dining addition overlooking the greenery of the backyard. Updated bathrooms, solid-core interior doors, custom window treatments, and designer touches along with recent interior and exterior paint, add a polished yet comfortable feel to the home.
The flexible floorplan is ideal for a variety of living situations and has tons of storage, making everyday living functional and organized — a rare feature for the neighborhood. Beyond cosmetic updates, there’s been numerous system and structural improvements. Cast iron plumbing beneath the slab was replaced in 2021. It also has newer ductwork, reconfigured HVAC system, added attic insulation, tankless hot water heater and additional steel piers to reinforce and stabilize the back addition.
Outside, the screened-in porch functions as a true second living room. The backyard also features a rebuilt oversized south-facing deck, extended fencing, thoughtful landscaping, mature shade trees, grassy play areas, and a cozy fire pit. Backing to a dry creek lined with mature trees, the property enjoys beautiful green views, giving the home a treehouse-like ambiance and an exceptional sense of privacy.
Tucked away on a quiet street with little through traffic, the location offers a neighborhood feel while remaining incredibly connected to the pulse of the city. Enjoy easy walks to Big Stacy Pool, Little Stacy Park, Curra’s Grill, H-E-B, and South Congress favorites like C-Boy’s Heart & Soul and Perla’s.
