5600 Bull Creek Rd

Set on a rare 0.3-acre corner lot in the heart of Shoalmont (Rosedale/Allandale), this thoughtfully updated mid-century home offers a private, park-like setting along Shoal Creek with direct access to the hike and bike trail system connecting to Pease Park and Downtown Austin. Beneath a canopy of mature oaks (delightful for climbing) and pecans, the home’s limestone exterior reflects the clean lines and natural materials of classic mid-century design, echoed inside by a limestone fireplace anchoring the living space. Originally built in the 1950s on a pier-and-beam foundation, the home has been carefully maintained and enhanced to balance architectural integrity with modern livability. A comprehensive 2016 remodel reimagined the kitchen and baths with custom cabinetry, designer finishes, and high-end appliances, while opening the layout for a more connected flow. Recent 2-2026 updates include fresh interior and exterior paint, updated siding in keeping with the original design, and a professionally refreshed landscape with native plantings, stone borders, and granite pathways. Efficiency improvements such as spray foam attic insulation, a durable metal roof, and drainage enhancements contribute to long-term performance. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a screened porch overlooking the greenbelt, a fenced yard with established tangerine beauty crossvine, and inviting gathering spaces beneath the trees.
