Saturday morning in South Austin usually starts the same way. You walk out the door, decide between Switchback Coffee & Beer or Praxis Coffee Roasters & by the time you're back, the dog has already made friends with somebody on the sidewalk. This spot is tucked into Oak Valley Park, where the trees have been here long enough to give real shade across the street. Out front, you get that classic brick & a low roofline. Out back, a great-sized yard & detached workshop round out the space nicely. Inside, the ceiling opens up. The living room has a vaulted ceiling and a white brick fireplace, & sliding doors pull in enough afternoon light that you won't turn a lamp on until dinner.
