1512 Northwood Rd

Charming cottage in iconic Pemberton Heights, one of Austin’s most revered neighborhoods. This 1930’s “gingerbread house” has been lovingly updated by fastidious owners and is turn-key with a 3 bed, 2 bath 1,716 SF main house and detached 288 SF carriage house. Classic curb appeal welcomes you and is a testament to historic Austin. Warmth and character continue inside where arched doorways, oak and pine flooring, commissioned stained glass, and original as well as custom light fixtures are just a few of the special touches. A long list of features and improvements can be found in the listing documents but highlights include a full primary bathroom remodel in 2022, all copper closed system gutters, and numerous plumbing and electrical upgrades. The cozy kitchen is a particularly delightful space with a large, above-the-sink window overlooking the covered stone patio and lush backyard that offers a picture-perfect setting for al-fresco dining and dreamy garden parties. The verdant grounds have been meticulously landscaped and the towering trees create a magical atmosphere of peace and privacy. Note the large, stylish storage shed to house outdoor tools and equipment. Zoned to beloved Casis Elementary, on a street where multi-million dollar estates are the norm, this unique property stands out as a rare opportunity to get into this heralded part of central Austin or for visionaries to design a fabulous addition on the 0.173 acre lot.
