Fabulous Southern Creole Plantation style home on the market again for the first time in almost 50 years. This well loved home is a replica of Magnolia Mound in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The gardens and landscaping were designed for Lt Col Robert and Elizabeth Hempfling, a long time professional interior designer, by Charles Coatsworth “C.C.” Pinkney to include a French parterre design. Large gorgeous heritage oaks surround the home. The original landscape plans are on file with Pinkney’s papers at the Austin History Center. The home includes a private studio/office with French doors and parquet floors built behind the detached carriage house-style 2 car garage. Some custom details, such as herringbone oak flooring, remain in good condition throughout the house. Other parts of the home are ready for a fresh start. The home sits at the back of a quiet cul-de-sac within walking distance of Doss Elementary and Murchison Junior High.
