The Austin property looks straight out of a fairy tale book from the outside, but inside it’s beautifully modern with touches of uniqueness throughout.
At the entrance, dark wooden floors distributed throughout the house, maintaining the rustic and warm atmosphere.
Further along the open plan home, there is a modern kitchen fitted with white cabinets, marble tiles and stainless steel finishes.
The first bedroom showcases the bold criss-cross window design from the interior point of view and fits perfectly above a fitted bookshelf and next to a cozy bed with tartan headboard.
The cabin, known as the Bouldin Gingerbread House, is described by agents Emily Waldmann and Megan Gallagher as “a piece of Austin history.”
Built in 1927 and reimagined by Spaller Glover in 2011, the cabin has a cozy yet spacious open layout.
A welcoming cobbled driveway lined with multi-coloured bushes leads to the striking property, which has a white exterior with dark brown accents around the windows and on the pitched double roof.
The windows at the front of the fairytale house have classic wood planks and crisscross details and adorable flower beds under the glass.
Upon entering, the dark wood floor extends throughout the house, maintaining a rustic and warm atmosphere that matches the nice exterior.
Natural light enters the house from all angles while the windows look out onto lush greenery.
Right next to the cozy cabin is the sprawling, modern two-story house, which is surrounded by a high wooden gate and features a garage and driveway.
Inside the house, beds with shiny floors spread across the floor and white walls and furniture are found in the many rooms of the house.
There is a bedroom on the ground floor which features a French window leading to the sunny patio.
