About 4418 Jinx Ave

Charming South Austin one-story with vintage character and creative updates throughout. This 1951 bungalow features custom stained glass doors and windows, along with artistic touches left by past owner Cheryl Latimer, the artist behind many of the whimsical sculptures at Austin’s iconic Peter Pan Mini-Golf. The 2019 bedroom addition is the gem of the home, offering generous space, abundant natural light, transom windows, and a walk-in closet that’s one of the largest in the neighborhood. It features durable and beautiful engineered eucalyptus flooring, while the home office, hall, and living/dining areas showcase original oak hardwoods that add warmth and character. The bedroom windows overlook the lush pollinator garden, creating a peaceful and vibrant view each day. The flexible layout includes a separate room perfect for a home office or studio. The outdoor space is a true gem. Step outside onto your wraparound porch and you’ll find a spacious, enchanting patio surrounded by native plantings. It’s an ideal indoor-outdoor living space made for relaxing, entertaining, and watching the butterflies and hummingbirds drift by as you enjoy your morning coffee or evening beverage. The yard is a sanctuary with pollinator gardens front and back, filled with roses, flowering trees, and native or adapted perennials and shrubs. Raised beds are ready for tomatoes and peppers, and a majestic live oak anchors the backyard. A handmade limestone path leads to a large custom fire pit that makes a perfect gathering spot. The oversized lot also includes an outbuilding, offering room to expand or enjoy as is. Ideally located minutes from the best of Austin’s retail, restaurants, nightlife, and downtown, with easy access to South 1st, Ben White, I-35, MoPac, 360, Central Market, South Lamar, and SOCO. A true South Austin gem with room to grow.
