Description

The property at 4701 & 4703 Shoal Creek Blvd. features two unique homes on half an acre in a park-like setting in the established Rosedale neighborhood. Main house is 4 BR, 2 BA, 2 LIV + Guest house is 1 BR, 1 BA, 1 LIV. When the property was located outside the Austin City limits in 1940, a one-story stone house, horse stables and a water well were built. The family of Dr. Sigman Hayes purchased the home in 1954 and added a den and a two-car carport, converted the stables into a guest house, and dug a concrete bomb shelter under the house. The main house has been updated over time while keeping its mid-century style. The floor plan includes two living areas, a formal dining room, a primary suite with walk-in closet and full bathroom, three additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and a laundry room. In 2023, solar panels were installed on the roof, providing renewable energy and lowering electrical bills. The rustic guest house features stone walls and floors, an open living/kitchen/dining area, one bedroom, a full bath, and laundry. The front porch of the guest house overlooks the beautiful tree-shaded yard and gardens landscaped with native Texas plants. The old stone water well, barbeque pit and pergola add charm to the outdoor entertainment area. All appliances and pool table convey.
