2512 Austin Avenue — A 1929 Austin Avenue Tudor For the buyer who has been waiting for an older home with real character, 2512 Austin is a rare find. Built in 1929 and approaching its 100th year, this distinctive Austin Avenue Tudor offers the architecture, gracious rooms, mature surroundings and sense of permanence that draw people to older homes—qualities that simply cannot be recreated in a new development. What makes 2512 especially compelling is that much of the difficult work associated with owning a nearly century-old home has already been addressed. The house has been carefully maintained and substantially updated, including major electrical and plumbing work, significant roof work, a renovated kitchen and an updated first-floor bath with steam shower. You get the character of a 1929 home without beginning with a 1929 renovation project. At approximately 2,686 square feet, the home offers generous and flexible living space while retaining the individuality and craftsmanship of an earlier era. Tudor-influenced rooflines, asymmetry, stucco exterior and period details give the house its distinctive architectural presence. And then there is Austin Avenue—one of Waco’s established historic residential corridors, close to the city’s cultural and urban core as downtown Waco and the Brazos riverfront enter an important new period of investment and redevelopment. New houses can be built again. A 1929 Austin Avenue Tudor cannot. Offered at $535,000, 2512 Austin is a rare opportunity to own a carefully maintained, substantially updated piece of Waco residential history—nearly a century old, full of character, and ready for its next chapter.
