Some homes simply check boxes. Others create a lifestyle. Located in the heart of East Austin, 1916 E. M. Franklin Ave (C) has been thoughtfully transformed over time into a home designed for the way people actually want to live - where design, functionality, and outdoor living come together effortlessly.
From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail is immediately apparent. An expanded tiled front patio, custom metal planters, artistic touches, and curated landscaping create a warm welcome and establish a character that feels distinctly East Austin.

Inside, the home has evolved far beyond its original design. The kitchen and pantry were completely reimagined to maximize storage and functionality, creating a space that works as beautifully as it looks. Custom built-ins, designer lighting, hardwood floors upstairs, accent walls, and intentional upgrades throughout bring warmth and personality to every room.
The backyard tells its own story. Designed as a private retreat, the outdoor spaces were created for both entertaining and unwinding. Enjoy evenings in the Jacuzzi spa, gather with friends on the custom wood deck, or relax among mature landscaping, bamboo, and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces. Turf and hardscaping create a low-maintenance environment, while substantial drainage and utility improvements add functionality beneath the surface.
The updates extend well beyond aesthetics. A new HVAC system installed in 2022, new roof and gutters in 2023, EV charging capability, custom San Marcos iron doors, garage upgrades, and extensive infrastructure improvements offer peace of mind and long-term value.
Just minutes from Downtown Austin, Mueller, local coffee shops, restaurants, and East Austin favorites, this home offers the rare combination of thoughtful design, privacy, and convenience in one of Austin’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
This isn't simply a house - it’s an East Austin home designed to be lived in and enjoyed.
