About this home

The Character You Want. The Updates You’ll Appreciate. Some homes don’t need to be brand new to steal your heart—they simply need to be thoughtfully updated and cared for. This home is a charming 1950s Crestview classic that blends timeless character with meaningful updates, offering the warmth and authenticity that make older Austin homes so appealing. The original wood floors have been beautifully resurfaced, adding richness and personality throughout the home. Updated windows, a roof less than five years old, and a tankless water heater bring added comfort and convenience. The bathroom has been tastefully updated, while the kitchen combines charm and function with beautiful custom cabinetry, pull-out drawers, thoughtful storage, and an indoor washer and dryer. Light-filled living spaces create a welcoming atmosphere equally suited for quiet mornings with coffee or evenings entertaining friends. With two bedrooms and comfortable, manageable spaces, this is a home you can settle into now while still having the freedom to make it distinctly your own. Outside, fully fenced front and back yards offer plenty of room to garden, entertain, relax, or let pets roam. A covered carport provides convenient off-street parking without taking away from the outdoor space. And then there’s the location. Set in the heart of Crestview, you can walk to Brentwood Elementary, the neighborhood pool, Violet Crown Shopping Center, local restaurants, coffee shops, wine bar and everyday conveniences—the kind of walkability and neighborhood connection that make this part of Central Austin so special. Full of character, updated where it matters, and perfectly positioned in one of Austin’s most established neighborhoods, 1523 Piedmont is the kind of home that feels welcoming the moment you arrive. Original character where you want it. Smart updates where you need them. A walkable Crestview location that ties it all together.
