Bartlett, TX 76511 231 S Evie St

Charming 1930’s Craftsman bungalow that glows with old world character and romance. Original, unpainted period woodwork, doors and molding exude a warmth and character only found in these increasingly hard to come by period homes. All the hallmarks of the Craftsman bungalow architectural vernacular - shaker panel columns, spacious full width covered front porch, dormered hip gable metal roof, classic single hung window banks and stately front door with dual side lites. Original solid hardwood floors extend the historic elegance into the interior. Quintessential 15 solid wood french doors with rich molding throughout, high ceilings, old world details all the way down to the picture rail in the living room. New engineered hardwoods have been added in the kitchen and laundry for modern functionality. Large lush lot with mature pecan trees is a blank slate waiting to be made your private paradise. TuffShed for additional storage and detached two car carport. Located just steps from the Bartlett Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, renowned for its red brick paved streets at Evie St and Clark St and significant examples of period architecture, including the Bartlett Bank Building. Rich with turn-of-the-century Texas history, downtown Bartlett has been featured in movies and tv shows such as the Newton Boys as an iconic small town Texas backdrop and one of the most intact examples of early 20th century commercial brick row buildings, with 88% considered ‘contributing structures’ to the historic district. All this, and only an hour away from the center of downtown Austin and all the culture of the city. Truly a dream restoration or renovation project with the history, classic small town Texas setting, and all for a price that is hard to believe. At this price point, truly a rare and unique opportunity for restoration of a home of historic and architectural quality that is more than worth the investment - an unpolished gem.
