What's around 2308 Forest Ave

About this property

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!
