This is a rare opportunity to buy into one of Austin's newly established historical districts, the Robertson/Stuart & Mair Historic District, with buildings dating back to 1840. East 8th Street is a very walkable location, with many establishments within a short walk, like Zilker Brewing Company, The Liberty Bar, VIA313 Pizzeria, Ramen Tatsuya, The Grackle, Shangri-La, Violet Crown Social Club, The Lucky Duck, Low Down Lounge, The White House, Buenos Aires Café, Pangea Lounge food court, Ah Sing Den, and many more. You can walk to Austin's central business district in less than 10 minutes. This home needs a lot of TLC and your vision to bring it back to its historic glory, but once complete you'll have an envious location you won't want to leave. Buyers are purchasing the home and all contents as-is, where-is, the sellers, as heirs to the estate, have very little knowledge of the condition of the home
