Today I am showcasing this 1911 schoolhouse... relocated from Elgin, Texas to the heart of central Austin in the Brentwood Neighborhood. It rests on a large, private 1/3 acre lot with a creek behind... lots this big are rare in the heart of the city. Imagine having your own personal oasis!
Note the schoolhouse shaped door trim! You can't see it in this photo, but there's a school bell over the door as well. The house has a large inviting front porch and a large back porch. 
Inside, many period details and architectural design elements including soaring 12 foot ceilings, arched doorways, and a fireplace mantle with marble hearth.
The kitchen has loads of cabinets and built ins along with a picture-perfect window over the sink. The home could use a little TLC... but is also perfectly darling as-is.
The house is 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, 1500+ square feet with 2 dining areas, a huge utility room, walk-in pantry, and outdoor storage. This view is from one of the bedrooms.
The bathroom has an original cast iron tub and vintage tile.
The house is priced at $289,000 - which, when combined with the size of the lot... is a steal. Click here for the virtual tour.
Listed at $289,000 and just over 2500 square feet, this 4 bedroom, 2 bath southwest Austin home located in Oak Hill Elementary school district is a fantastic value. The house is light and airy with bamboo and travertine floors throughout. The living room has soaring ceilings and a wood burning fire place. 
Viking appliances and [what looks to me like] Carerra marble counters. 
and a river rock shower. 
Built in 1925, Casa Rosa measures a mere 810 square feet and sits on a decent size .16 acre lot (good size for the area). It is already zone mixed use for commercial, retail, or office and is screaming for a visionary to come along and snap it up to make it the next East Austin hipster destination. The list price is $232,000 and it has been on the Austin real estate market for 1 day.
