Description:

Need to live close to the big city and the airport but no longer want to live in the big city? Want the peace and quiet of a small town with convenient access to nearby large cities such as Austin, Kyle, Buda, and San Marcos? All these cities are only about twenty minutes away, and once the last remaining leg of the 45-toll road is complete, you will be able to hop on in Lockhart and travel all the way to north Austin without a single stop light. Lockhart has much to offer in the way of arts, food, music, and other unique cultural experiences, and the area is rapidly expanding. You must see this home to believe it! It has been restored head to toe and is in pristine condition. Inside this gorgeous 2700 sf home, situated on just under a half-acre, you will find an open floor plan with three bedrooms and three full baths, two large living areas (one with a fireplace), and a large kitchen which opens onto a large dining area. The kitchen includes a large walk-in pantry. There is a ton of closet space (ten closets!) as well as lots of cabinets and other unique storage. The home has a large utility room and an additional utility sink located in the two-car attached garage which is finished inside, including the flooring. The large, beautifully landscaped yard includes a swimming pool, guest house, greenhouse, raised gardens and a single car detached garage (in addition to the two-car attached garage), all inside a fully enclosed back yard. There is a large, screened porch with a fireplace and a view of the pool creating a great place to relax and unwind in the evenings and weekends. This house is of quality hand-built construction through and through, which is rarely found in today’s new construction. The guest house is ideal for guests, teenager, or college student who need their own space. It can also be a generator of extra income and has been rented out for the past eight years or so. The guest house, which has its own electric meter, consists of one room, a full bath, and a walk-in closet. Included are a microwave, toaster oven, small refrigerator, and window unit A/C. The detached single car garage adjacent to the guest house opens to the alley behind the house. Keep the detached garage for yourself or rent it out as part of the guest house. The walkability score for this property is off the charts. The elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as the beautiful town square are all within walking distance or a short bike ride. The town square hosts several fine restaurants, bars with top-notch music entertainment, a small specialty grocery store, a coffee shop, art galleries, antique stores, year-round outdoor events and much more all surrounding our Grand Dame, the Caldwell County Courthouse. Of course, don’t forget the Texas Legislature named Lockhart “The BBQ Capital of Texas” with a half dozen excellent BBQ joints to choose from.
