Property Description
Originally constructed by Joseph Limerick an Irish immigrant, this home tells a powerful story of community, culture, and resilience. Later acquired in 1905 by Professor John W. Frazier—an educator at Samuel Huston College.
Today, the property offers rare views of downtown Austin, the UT Tower, and Darrell K Royal Stadium—all within a short distance of future green space and emerging retail in one of the city's fastest-growing corridors. Architecturally, the home is a preserved example of late 19th-century Texas vernacular design, showcasing an I-plan layout, clapboard siding, and an extended front porch that complements the structure's historic bones.
Much of the original detailing remains: balloon-framed walls, tongue-and-groove wood floors, two brick fireplaces, and ornate tiled mantels. The foyer leads to a stately staircase flanked by a formal living room and bedroom, while the second floor includes two spacious bedrooms and a light-filled study. Though the kitchen and baths await updates, the bones of this home are unmatched.
Whether you're a preservationist, visionary developer, or someone drawn to legacy properties, this is a chance to own a meaningful piece of East Austin's past—and help shape its future.
