This well-designed home at 2504 Keating Lane is so special we wanted to feature it this week on West Austin Marketplace. Built by a small custom home builder with quality in mind in 2008, this Tarrytown home features gorgeous reclaimed antique heart of pine floors, walls of windows, and a generous open floor plan just shy of 4000 square feet. Only a few streets over from where my great grandparents built the first home on Indian Trail, this home is located where Keating, Janice and Townes Lane converge at a small grassy triangle. You’ll often see the neighborhood kids playing ball there or running from yard to yard.
If you’re looking for a classic style with a relaxing ambiance, this home is the one for you. French doors off the foyer lead to an impressive study, previously used as a home office but with all of the built in bookshelves it could easily be a library or reading room–and it has a full bath nearby. The chef’s kitchen though is the heart of the home with an expansive granite topped island, bar seating, and miles of counter space for food prep or cooking with friends. It even has a little wine fridge among the sleek stainless appliances. A spacious breakfast area incorporated into the kitchen lends itself well to a large table where the family can gather for meals or to do homework.
Enjoy holiday entertaining and make some great family memories in the casual yet elegant formal dining room, an extension of the open living space. Lights around the tray ceiling and the modern chandelier can be adjusted to suite any mood or occasion.
The luxurious owner’s suite on the main level features an elegant bath with soaking tub and jetted shower. Two separate vanities and two walk in closets provide ample space for residents to get ready for a busy day.
Outdoor entertaining is fun with a covered living area off the kitchen with a built-in grill and sink. A big screen television shows the big game while steaks are on the grill. There is also a nice informal seating area great for nibbling on appetizers or serving burgers to the kids. Most of the lots in Tarrytown were traditionally cut small because they had smaller homes built on them. This home is situated on a lot and a half, and while the lot is smaller than many homes located outside of Central Austin, there is ample room for kids to play and even a dog run on the side with access to the laundry room.
A recently added party pavilion is perfect for backyard parties or doing outdoor art projects. This space could also be converted to additional yard space at a buyer’s request.
Upstairs, there are three large bedrooms with two full baths that share a large game room with extensive built ins, mini fridge and sink. There is also a separate media room that can be used as a gym or theater. There are endless possibilities for all of this space.
This home is perfectly located several blocks from Triangle Park and is convenient to Tarrytown and Casis shopping centers, the Howson Branch Library, the Post Office, Move Austin Fitness, Starbucks, Randalls Grocery and Casis Elementary School.
