1716 W Saint Johns Ave, Austin TX 78757, Austin, TX 78757
About this property
Tucked away in the heart of Austin’s beloved Crestview neighborhood, 1716 West Saint Johns Avenue is a home that radiates personality and warmth at every turn. This charming 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom residence is full of well-executed character—from its delightfully vintage mint green bathroom to its thoughtfully remodeled kitchen, which was proudly featured in HGTV Magazine. The result is a seamless blend of old Austin soul and modern functionality.
Step inside and you’ll immediately notice the custom built-ins that make the space both efficient and cozy, including bookshelves that wrap the living room in warmth and invitation. The kitchen offers generous storage and workspace, ideal for serious home cooks and casual entertainers alike. A dedicated laundry room adds extra convenience, while the new roof (2025) and hardiboard-style siding provide peace of mind and durability for years to come.
Outside, the property shines just as brightly. The spacious yard offers ample room for a future addition or accessory dwelling unit (ADU), while the shady, breezy backyard provides a welcome respite from Austin’s summer heat. Much of the fencing has recently been replaced or is soon to be, further enhancing the yard’s charm and privacy. The landscaping is both lovely and low-maintenance, a testament to the care this home has received over the years.
Location-wise, it doesn’t get much better. You’re just blocks from the ever-popular Little Deli, Brentwood Elementary, and the lively corridor of Burnet Road, with its mix of local cafes, vintage shops, and neighborhood bars. Whether you’re headed out for a coffee, a bike ride, or a night of live music, everything you love about Austin is just minutes away.
1716 West Saint Johns is more than a house—it’s a soulful, well-loved home that’s ready to welcome its next chapter.
