Prime Location with Scenic Views, Thoughtful Architectural Expansion, Luxurious Primary Suite, High-End Kitchen Finishes, Distinctive Custom Details
As you sit on the front porch of 1708 E. 40th beneath the canopy of mature trees, you’ll enjoy the peaceful view of the greenbelt and creek just across the street. Just blocks from Patterson Park and a short walk to Mueller, the location strikes the perfect balance of city access with natural beauty. The home was thoughtfully expanded by local architecture firm Jobe Corral in 2020 and now perfectly blends the charm of the original structure with a light-filled modern addition. The remodel includes a spacious dining room, office, upstairs loft, and dreamy primary suite that feels like a treehouse. The sleek kitchen features slate floors, clé tile, updated cabinets, high-end appliances, and steel finishes. Every inch has been lovingly maintained and is the perfect choice if you love character and function, ideal for modern living. Hardwood floors, handpicked tile, standing seam metal roof, a stunning steel staircase, and other custom details throughout make this home a standout. Linger on the front porch at sunset or relax out back under the shady trees and enjoy the sounds of nature in the place where architecture, nature, and community come together.

Austin`s art scene is heating up this summer with @wcc.art`s new show Neon Range: Pop Visions of the New West, featuring local debuts from artists Miles Glynn and Cyrus Walker. Opening June 14th, the exhibition dives into how we envision the American West today versus historical reality, blending classic cowboy imagery with bold contemporary pop art. The artists tackle frontier mythology and modern takes on Western culture in what looks like a pretty cool exploration. Definitely planning to check it out!

April market stats are in! You’ve probably seen some gloomy headlines lately, but we’re choosing to focus on the opportunity. Austin has officially reached 6 months of inventory, meaning we’re in a buyer’s market.

Sellers need to put in the work—today’s market rewards homes that are priced right and truly show-ready. Buyers: this is your moment. With more inventory and less competition, it’s a rare window to shop smart—but it won’t last forever. Now more than ever, having an experienced agent on your side matters. Let’s make sure your next move is a smart one.
