This charming 2-bed, 1-bath 'craftsman' style cottage located in Clarksville is walkable and bikable to many great restaurants, grocery stores, Downtown, and the Lady Bird Lake trail system. The home is equipped with sustainable features including solar panels, an EV charger, a tankless water heater, and two rain barrels. One side of the home has an open living, dining and kitchen area that opens onto a rear deck facing toward downtown and overlooking the large rear yard. The other side is divided into main bed and second bed/office with bath between. The main bed includes a large built-in wardrobe closet while the second bed/office has a custom-built floor-to-ceiling bookshelf. The restroom is fully tiled with marble hex floor and classic white wall. A floating vanity is topped with a vessel sink and bamboo counter. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances including dishwasher, French-door refrigerator, gas-range, quartz countertops, and a functional combo of open shelving and closed cabinetry. Unique for the area, the home also has a walk-out basement providing exceptional storage space for a small home and houses the washer/dryer. The front yard is landscaped with native plants and includes two large steel planters, excellent for an herb garden. The large rear yard is fully fenced with a sloped grass lawn and freestanding modern gazebo. The rear of the property exits to a neighborhood alley and walking path short-cut to the major thoroughfares. Seller/Broker resided in the property for nearly a decade and completed renovations in 2013 (counters/cabinets, cedar/metal fence, historic window restoration, flooring, paint, insulation, interior trim work); 2014 (tankless WH, standing seam roof, solar panels); 2015 (EV charger, front door); 2016 (full bath remodel, built-in wardrobe, new HVAC); and 2022 (rear deck). The home not only lives well today, but the walk-out basement and large rear yard offer expansion opportunities for the future.
