Property Description
Austin history, completely reimagined. Set beneath three magnificent oaks, 1704 Giles was once home to beloved KUT/KUTX radio personality John Aielli, whose Eklektikos program helped shape Austin's musical imagination for more than five decades. Today, a comprehensive gut remodel brings a fresh chapter to this distinctive Cherrywood home. The transformation reaches from the systems to the surfaces: all-new HVAC, new electrical wiring and box, new plumbing, double-pane windows, gleaming blonde hardwoods, freshly skim-coated plaster walls and new paint. A metal roof complements the home's extensive improvements. The open kitchen pairs marble countertops, sculptural rattan pendant, added pantry storage and deep bowl double basin sink. All-new white glass paneled appliances include a gas-burner range, french door refrigerator and dishwasher. A wood-burning fireplace grounds the living space with warmth and character. Two bedrooms feature large cedar closets, while a versatile bonus room with high-efficiency washer and dryer and generous shelving. This adaptable space offers possibilities for a third bedroom, office or home gym. Remodeled bathroom features an artisan-tiled walk-in shower, glass vessel sink and LED-lighted mirror with dimmable lighting. Enjoy a neighborhood made for exploring on foot at nearby Cherrywood Coffeehouse to discovering the dining destinations along Manor Road, including Dai Due, Este and Haymaker. Leafy residential streets and local gathering places give the area a familiar, distinctly Austin rhythm. Centrally positioned Giles Street offers an intimate pocket of neighborhood life within easy reach of Mueller, UT and downtown. Its limited collection of homes creates a small-town feel in the city-a place for front-porch conversations, neighborhood strolls and putting down roots. Explore the 3-D tour, then experience a home with an Austin story all its own.
