Iconic Residence Blending Classic Charm and Modern Design

Nestled in the heart of historic Clarksville/Old West Austin, this iconic residence is a masterful blend of classic, historical charm and modern design. Thoughtfully reimagined by Tim Cuppett, the home underwent a meticulous remodel and guest house addition (with two different owners), earning a feature in Austin Home and a spot on the prestigious AIA Austin Homes Tour in 2015. Every detail of this property has been carefully considered – from preserved architectural elements that honor the home’s original character, to refined modern updates that bring both beauty and function. The main residence offers a warm, inviting atmosphere with timeless finishes, while the guest house provides a modern, sleek space for visitors, work, or creative retreat. The lush landscaping - a perfect accent combining both modern and traditional elements – provides a peaceful and serene outdoor experience in the private backyard or shaded front porch. In the main house, original details such as paneled doors, transom windows and elegant wainscoting – all in original unpainted condition – are beautifully highlighted and preserved. The floorplan includes 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a cozy library and open living/dining/kitchen. The living room and kitchen are accented with mirror-image modern bay windows, flooding both spaces with natural light. The modern guesthouse includes a two car garage, flexible indoor/outdoor entertaining space, and generously sized storage room on the ground level. The efficiently designed second floor includes a kitchenette, bedroom, bathroom and laundry/storage closet. Attached to the guesthouse at the third level is a rooftop platform which provides a sweeping 360-degree panorama of downtown as well as the surrounding hills. Located in one of Austin’s most beloved neighborhoods, you’re just minutes from downtown, yet tucked away in a peaceful, tree-lined enclave surrounded by other historic estates. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Austin design history in a location that perfectly balances old soul and new spirit.
