601 Elm Street

~ SIMPLY SPECIAL ~ SUITABLY SNUG ~
Welcome to 601 Elm Street, a modest abode nicely near - well, all the things! Low-key quiet spot in a high-key cool historic town. 5 min walk to Tracy’s Drive-in Grocery (and coffee!), 6 min to Eden East Farm, 13 min to Fisherman’s Park on the Colorado River, 14 min to see all your new friends eating, drinking and shopping in Downtown Bastrop. Also in your walk radius: a variety of gyms, yoga studios, churches, dentists, doctors, schools, a library, a pharmacy, a post office, parks, a museum, an arts center, an opera house, a skatepark, a fire station, City Hall, your chamber, copy shops, coffeeshops, tattoo artists, gamers, music teachers, a bookstore, banks, barbers, and maybe even botox. Get to know the 200+ businesses inhabiting the 62 blocks designated as our “Main Street District.”
They say it’s all about location - it’s about layout too! The lot is wide and shallow, overlooking the oversized backyard of the neighbors, so the unobstructed views from the back and side help it feel more spacious than 0.14 acres. The home is situated on the west side of the lot, so there is room in the sideyard for additional improvements if desired. It’s a simple 2-1 with dual-entry bathroom, shared by both bedrooms. One of the bedrooms has a larger walk-in closet. This bedroom also has an exterior door that leads to the back deck. The washer and dryer are located in an attached storage area on the back deck. The living room is roomy enough and has a lovely view of the front yard and Elm St. The kitchen is yellow and cheery and perhaps untouched since 1967. Most would consider updating according to preferences, but it’s also functional as it stands now.
Come for a tour and see what this property holds for you. Be sure to spend some time Downtown to paint the fuller picture of possibility. Life is good here.
