If homes had personalities, this one would be the cool kid with old-soul charm and creative flair. Built in 1964, this three-bedroom, two-bath home blends vintage warmth with modern updates in one of Austin's best-kept secrets "” the Richland Estates neighborhood, nestled in a bend of the Colorado River lovingly known as the "Dog's Head District." Step inside to find original hardwood floors, big sunny windows, and an easy, welcoming flow. The dining area opens into a flexible nook perfect for a writing desk, bar, or breakfast spot, and sliding doors lead to a cheerful sunroom with painted concrete floors and built-in shelving. It's the perfect place to sip morning coffee, get creative, or let your plants soak in the light. From the sunroom, step out to your private, fenced porch "” string up the lights, pour a glass of wine, and enjoy Austin evenings under the stars. Thoughtful updates bring peace of mind: a new Owens Corning dimensional roof, leveled pier-and-beam foundation, fresh paint throughout, Frigidaire kitchen appliances, and fold-in windows that make cleaning easy. The attached two-car garage includes built-in shelving, a storage room, and a full laundry area complete with washer and dryer. Outside, this spacious, east-facing lot is a gardener's paradise "” with native plantings, raised garden beds, a six-foot trough planter, and even a thriving fig tree ready to share its bounty. With quick access to Highway 71, 183, and SH-130, you're just minutes from East Austin's buzz or downtown's energy, yet tucked away in a quiet, tree-filled pocket where neighbors still wave hello. 1400 Brand Drive is that rare Austin find "” full of character, comfort, and charm "” the kind of home that just feels good the moment you walk in.
