Thoughtfully renovated by architect owners, this light-filled Windsor Park mid-century home beautifully balances preserved original character with modern design. During the renovation, the goal was to honor the home’s modernist roots while enhancing everyday livability. Original casement windows were restored, the classic pine kitchen cabinetry was preserved and seamlessly integrated with additional cabinetry, and original tile remains in the ensuite bath—maintaining the authentic charm that makes these homes so special. A thoughtfully designed primary suite addition expands the home while remaining true to its mid-century roots. The space was carefully integrated into the original architecture, maintaining the home’s clean lines, scale, and natural light. The result is a private retreat, with a walk in closet and modern bathroom, that feels like a natural extension of the original design.
The kitchen opens to the dining and living spaces, creating a welcoming layout ideal for entertaining and daily life. Large windows and sliding doors connect the interior to the outdoor living areas, extending the living space into the backyard. Set on a .27 acre, larger-than-typical Windsor Park lot, the backyard is designed for gathering and relaxing beneath mature trees. A converted backyard shed now serves as a screened casita—perfect for reading, relaxing, or enjoying the outdoors even on warm Austin evenings. The spacious yard has ample room for a pool (buyer to verify). Located in the heart of Windsor Park, the home is just minutes from the vibrant Mueller district, offering easy access to restaurants, H-E-B shopping, parks, trails, The Alamo Drafthouse and the beloved Mueller Farmers Market. Known for its friendly, walkable atmosphere, Windsor Park is a neighborhood where neighbors gather on porches, walk their dogs, and enjoy the best of East Austin living.
