Description
4701 Shoal Creek Blvd. is a one-story Austin stone residence situated on an oversized, tree-shaded corner lot in the charming Rosedale neighborhood. The property boasts an intriguing history and has been carefully preserved over the years. Originally built in 1940, when the area was still outside the Austin city limits, the home has retained much of its authentic mid-century style even as it has been updated. In 1954, the home was purchased by the family of Dr. Sigman Hayes. Notable additions made by the Hayes family include a den, a two-car carport, and a concrete bomb shelter constructed beneath the house. Over time, the home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its character, including a remodeled kitchen featuring a breakfast bar, quartz countertops and refurbished knotty pine cabinets with generous storage. The floor plan is spacious and versatile, offering two living areas, a formal dining room, a primary suite with walk-in closet and full bathroom, three additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and a laundry room. In 2023, solar panels were installed on the roof, providing renewable energy and contributing to lower electrical bills. The old stone water well, barbeque pit and pergola create a unique outdoor entertainment area overlooking the expansive yard and gardens landscaped with Texas native plants. Adjacent to the main home, the separate property at 4703 Shoal Creek Blvd. was originally the site of the horse stables for 4701 Shoal Creek Blvd. This space has been transformed into a rustic one-bedroom cottage, now available for purchase as well. The cottage features stone walls and floors, an open living, kitchen, and dining area, one bedroom, a full bathroom, and laundry facilities. It would serve well as a guest house or work studio to complement the original home. 4701 Shoal Creek Blvd.: 4 BR/ 2BA, LOT SIZE 110’ X 135’, LISTED FOR $1,295,000 4703 Shoal Creek Blvd.: 1 BR/ 1BA, LOT SIZE 80’ X 135’, LISTED FOR $800,000 BOTH PROPERTIES PURCHASED TOGETHER: LISTED FOR $1,995,000
