Artfully restored from stem to stern, this 60’s era ranch-style home was reimagined into an open, light and bright mid-century modern just a short commute from Austin. This eclectic beauty sits on almost half an acre in the mature part of historic Taylor, Texas, and includes a separate two-story barn and carriage house from the original early 1900’s homestead. Vintage elements were thoughtfully integrated into the re-design and staging of the home to create an interesting, historically relevant space in a thoroughly modern setting. Throughout you will find details that surprise and delight. The frosted-glass paneled front door opens to a cleverly integrated dining/living area, adjoined by a semi-open kitchen awash in aquamarine cabinetry and sparkly quartz countertops. There's a large walk-through bonus room that would make a great office, game room, studio, or even a 5th bedroom. On the functional side, this home boasts amazing storage and 4 huge bedrooms—all with TWO closets—rare today. Your outdoor relaxation options range from private encounters on a pecan-shaded rear patio to the Taylor tradition of “sittin' a spell” on your open front deck. Perfect location on Davis St, surrounded by lovely Victorian homes, walking distance to Murphy Park and historic downtown Taylor and its famous BBQ, and just a block from the amazing Plowman’s Restaurant and Old Taylor High which has been re-purposed into retail, cafe, bar, and social spaces. While you tour the home, enjoy original contemporary art by five amazing Austin-area artists! Escape the rat race…get your art on...come sit a spell in Taylor!
