This well maintained Zilker home was tastefully updated and expanded in 2007 by its longtime owners. The home now offers a large primary suite with 10ft ceilings, concrete floors with french doors opening to the backyard. Primary bathroom is spacious with large soaking tub, separate shower and a dreamy walk-in closet complete with Elfa shelving. Two additional private rooms can be used in a variety of ways, including bedrooms or perfect for a guest room, office and/or additional living space. The numerous windows have all been replaced with Pella triple-pane windows, including built-in blinds allowing owner to easily manage the abundance of natural light. HVAC was replaced in 2021 and water heater was new as of 2022. The kitchen is tucked off the living room, at the front right of the house allowing privacy from entering guests. The updated cabinetry, black granite countertops, gas range and stainless steel appliances make this a smaller, yet mighty kitchen! Both front and back decks are TREX, providing easy maintenance and perfect spots for your morning coffee. Located close to Bluebonnet Lane, it's an easy walk to both S. Lamar and Little Zilker Park. Enjoy all the nearby conveniences while living on a road less traveled in one of Austin's most desirable central neighborhoods. Please note - there currently is construction further down De Verne as the city is replacing the neighborhood's sewer lines. Fortunately, the sewer lines have already been replaced in front of the property!
