Situated in the heart of Zilker, one of Austin's most vibrant and walkable neighborhoods, 1608 Hether Street is a beautifully reimagined 3/2 designer bungalow that blends timeless architectural charm with elevated modern living. Thoughtfully rebuilt by a respected local designer, the home honors its original 1940s character while introducing a sophisticated interior palette, an open floor plan, and luxurious contemporary finishes. Natural light pours through expansive windows, illuminating original hardwood floors, custom white oak cabinetry, and curated design details that create an atmosphere of effortless elegance. The chef's kitchen is both refined and functional, outfitted with premium appliances, stone countertops, and handcrafted finishes designed to support both daily living and entertaining.
