A singular blend of historic charm and modern luxury defines this reimagined 1940s bungalow in Austin’s coveted Rosewood neighborhood. Renovated and expanded by Oliver Custom Homes under the vision of FAIA award-winning architect Ripley Rasmus, the residence balances original character with meticulous contemporary design.<br />Set across two buildings, the property offers 4 bedrooms and 4.5 baths—3/3.5 in the main house and a 1/1 guest casita—each space thoughtfully crafted for comfort and style. Interiors showcase custom cabinetry in rift-cut oak across the kitchen, bathrooms, pocket office, and primary wardrobe, paired with Bertazzoni and Fisher Paykel appliances, including integrated counter-depth refrigeration and dishwashing. Calacatta Viola stone anchors the kitchen, entry credenza, and powder room, while Zia cement and terrazzo tile unify the home’s sophisticated palette.<br />Smart-home lighting and integrated Sonos speakers create effortless ambiance indoors and out. The hotel-like primary suite features a custom-built-in wardrobe, private balcony, and spa-inspired bath with freestanding tub, double vanity, and dual walk-in showers. Additional custom closets, a steel pavilion carport with breeze block wall, and fully landscaped grounds elevate everyday living. Outdoors, an entertainer’s dream awaits with a kitchen, dining area, and conveyed pool plans.<br />Every detail of 1405 Harvey Street—craftsmanship, materiality, and design—is a statement in refined Austin living, offering a rare opportunity to inhabit a home where history and modern luxury converge.
