6640 Isabelle


3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, 2 Car Garage
1428 SF- $229,900

Don't let this unassumingly modest front fool you! The owners have put some green loving into this home and also kept an eye for style. The high ceiling and skylight bring light into the kitchen area, and the counter color seamlessly matches the stainless steel backsplash. (hurray, no grout to clean!) They have also worked some sweet details into the bathrooms. This is definitely not your cookie cutter renovation. What is going on nearby? The light rail is an easy stroll, and Austin Community College recently announced that it is opening up a new location at the Highland Mall!

Here are just a few of the fabulous green features:

Walk to the light rail station and nearby stores
Eco Carpeting in bedrooms
Bamboo flooring (easily renewable resource)
Eco by Cosetino Countertops (recycled content)
16 SEER HVAC system (high efficiency)
Sheet metal duct work
R-38 Insulation (that's a lot of insulation)
Solar Screens (keeps your home cooler in the summer)
Zero-VOC Paints (better air quality)
Energy Star appliances (lower energy usage)
Low water landscaping (often easier to care for)
Separate garage (keeping fumes and harmfull chemicals out of the living space)

With all of these features, your new home will provide you with good air quality and lower utility bills, as well as a location where it's easy to get around!
