Resting beneath five expansive oak trees-some nearing 200 years old-2308 Forest Avenue offers 3,706 square feet on a generous 0.21-acre lot, making it one of the largest homes in the neighborhood. Despite its scale, it carries a quiet, grounded charm deeply connected to its surroundings-designed for gathering, retreating, and living in rhythm with nature and community. The backyard is the heart of the property. Thoughtfully paved and framed by a newer cedar fence, it balances beauty with ease. Pomegranate and mulberry trees add seasonal interest, while custom lighting creates a soft evening glow. Multiple seating areas, a dining patio, fans, and misters support year-round outdoor living. A custom shed and limestone side yard complete the space. Inside, the original 1948 home features preserved oak floors and timeless warmth. The front living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and lined with French windows that bring in natural light and garden views. A flexible front wing includes a bedroom, study, full bath, and dining nook with custom storage. The kitchen is designed for daily living and entertaining, with a large island, Thermador range, Bosch refrigeration, Cove dishwasher, and built-in workspace. A nearby laundry room with butcher block counters and a discreet chute upstairs add function. A sunken living room in the newer addition centers around a gas and wood-burning fireplace with surround sound. Upstairs, three bedrooms offer natural light and flexibility. The primary suite overlooks the garden and includes a walk-in closet and bath with soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks. Additional bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, the home offers a strong sense of community just minutes from South Congress, South First, downtown, and a nearby H-E-B. One of a kind because of its size, location, trees, oversized lot and paved patios!
