Just minutes from Downtown, this classic Clarksville bungalow was taken down to the studs and completely rebuilt in 2016 with architecture by Garwood architects. While originally built in 1916, the property now feels brand new and seamlessly blends vintage charm with contemporary style and modern conveniences. The inviting front porch and immaculate landscaping welcome you into an interior filled to every corner with character featuring reclaimed shiplap walls and ceilings and gorgeous reclaimed hardwood floors. An open living, kitchen, and dining area provides a natural flow with plenty of room for entertainment as well as abundant built-in storage throughout. The kitchen features stylish open shelving, a brick accent wall and a center island with a marble countertop. The first-floor primary suite features a walk-in custom closet by California Closets  and a renovated en-suite bathroom. Also on the main level is an office, a full bathroom with a soaking tub, and a conveniently-situated mud / laundry nook with marble shelving and storage.  Upstairs are 3 secondary bedrooms, with 1 of the bedrooms featuring a murphy bed, a full bathroom, and a large second floor landing perfect for a playroom, tv room, or secondary office. For cool summer nights, the first floor opens up to a screened-in porch and a fenced backyard. A 2-car garage offers ample space for both parking and storage. The foundation is raised high above the natural grade offering additional privacy from the street. This remarkable self-sustaining home utilizes solar power, a whole house Rainsoft water softener and a Reverse Osmosis filter on the kitchen sink. Around the corner from Swedish Hill, Clark’s Oyster Bar, Cafe Medici, and Whole Foods, and a short walk to West Austin Dog Park, there is no spot as highly sought-after in all of Clarksville.
