About 109 W 55th 1/2 St
*STUDIO NOT INCLUDED IN TCAD SF. Tucked into one of Austin’s most connected neighborhoods, 109 W 55 1/2 is an extensively remodeled 3/2 cottage + a recently added detached bonus studio. // A substantial ~$295k remodel was done in 2022 – a full down-to-the-studs reconfiguration of the kitchen, living, and laundry. The kitchen was completely rebuilt with custom KraftMaid cabinetry, white quartz countertops, designer tile backsplash, and new appliances. Honeycomb tiles and white oak hardwoods were installed in common areas of the home. Electrical and plumbing were replaced, with new 150-amp service, recessed LED lighting, new circuits for modern appliances, ethernet wiring, and new water lines and drains. HVAC improvements included new ductwork, a new dryer vent, and added exhaust and ventilation. // In 2024, the detached, climate–controlled studio was added, offering privacy and extra functionality. A new sub-panel and generator plug were installed in 2024 (gasoline-powered generator negotiable). The main house had a new metal roof installed in 2020. A new water heater was installed in 2021. The home has had several new windows installed, and has been freshly painted, inside and out. // The fenced back yard is lush and large, with two seating areas. The deck outside of the laundry room was made with Trex(R); decking and added in 2022. // Located just minutes from Hyde Park, UT, and Downtown, this home blends character with comfort. Live in the heart of 78751 with quick access to local favorites like Epoch Coffee, Home Slice, and more. The ACC Highland Campus is down the road. Commuting? Lamar Blvd, I-35, and MetroRail are all within easy reach. Project Connect will only further add to and enhance the already ample transportation options nearby, with the North Loop/Lamar station part of the first phase. // This is the Austin mix everyone’s after—character, location, flexibility, and style—all wrapped up in one inviting package.
