When the home was built in 1946 there was no such thing as air conditioning. Each bedroom had two doors to facilitate air flow and there was a very comfortable front porch where you could enjoy some fresh air. Air conditioning and a clothes washer machine were added over time. The clothes line was replaced with a dryer. A dishwasher was added. The original character and charm of the property were left intact though. 4302 didn’t change with the times, but it kept up. Maybe you’ll turn the phone nook into an iphone charging station. There is a moonlight tower around the corner and you’ll walk by it on the way to get a cup of coffee or a sandwich. Shipe Park has pools and sport courts and playground equipment and musical gatherings that are unique to the neighborhood. Relax on the front porch and watch smiling neighbors from 2 to 102 walk by. Kids ride bikes to school and home. Adults and children enjoy Halloween in a big way. Come live in back when Austin was a town. Live here and enjoy all the best of Central Austin life.
