Property Description

708 Sparks Avenue is a charming Tudor-style residence tucked on a quiet street in the heart of Austin. Surrounded by live oak trees, the home offers the rare feeling of living in a private treehouse while enjoying an unbeatable central location near the University of Texas at Austin, St. David's Medical Center, I-35, top-rated schools, and Eastwoods Park. With four bedrooms and four full bathrooms, this beautifully updated property blends timeless elegance with thoughtful modern enhancements. The 2014 remodel, designed by architect Steve Zagorski, added intentional updates that complement the home's original character. Inside, bright interiors and stunning hardwood floors create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Vaulted ceilings elevate the spacious living and lounge spaces, which flow into the open kitchen and dining area, featuring a center island, stainless steel appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, stone countertops, and a sliding door that opens seamlessly to the picturesque backyard. The primary retreat feels like a secluded sanctuary, complete with a private terrace, Lutron blackout shades, and a spa-inspired bathroom with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and an expansive walk-in shower with dual heads, all beneath vaulted wood ceilings. Outdoors, multiple entertaining spaces await, from the covered patio and built-in BBQ to the large rooftop terrace with a hot tub, offering views over the tree line. An air-conditioned detached casita with a full bathroom and living space provides flexibility for guests, a home office, or a gym. Rarely does a property combine architectural distinction, modern comfort, and exceptional outdoor living in such a premier central Austin setting.

ABOUT US

Our Story

From Humble Beginnings to a Nationwide Movement

At simpliHŌM, we know firsthand that real estate is about more than houses — it’s about people, families, and the places they call home. Our journey didn’t begin in a boardroom or with limitless resources. It began with adversity.

Our Founder & CEO, Sean Miku, once found himself on food stamps, without a home, and forced to pick the lock on a water meter just to give his baby girl her first bath. Out of those struggles came a relentless determination to build something better — not only for his own family, but for every agent and client who deserved a simpler, more supportive way to experience real estate.

With just $30,000 and four agents, simpliHŌM was launched in 2018. From those humble beginnings, we’ve grown into a thriving, people-first brokerage spanning multiple states and serving thousands of agents nationwide — all driven by the same mission: Making Real Estate Simple.

Our Mission: Making Real Estate Simple

We believe real estate should be transparent, efficient, and personal. At simpliHŌM, relationships are at the heart of every transaction. Our mission is to remove the unnecessary complexity and stress, creating a seamless experience for clients and empowering agents to thrive.

Innovative Technology Meets Human
