The Spurgeon Bell House is a designated City of Austin historic landmark located in the Aldridge Place Historic District. This 1925 Mediterranean Villa-style residence was designed by prominent Austin architect and U.T. professor, Raymond Everett, for Professor Spurgeon Bell, founder of the U.T. School of Business. The home’s distinctive Mediterranean Villa design blends traditional Spanish and Italian influences, with a tile roof, round-arched windows and doorways, light-filled rooms, and integrated patios and sunrooms—all of which remain defining features today. Another highlight is the custom iron staircase crafted by Austin’s notable Weigl Ironworks. The traditional floor plan (2,504 SF) features a spacious formal living room with a fireplace open to the adjoining formal dining room, a separate den/TV room, and a bright kitchen and breakfast nook overlooking the backyard and pool. The main level also includes a powder room and laundry room. Upstairs are four bedrooms and two baths, including the primary suite with a private bath and an adjoining sunroom with original wood casement windows. An unfinished basement provides additional convenient storage. Outside, a detached two-car garage with upstairs studio/media room (407 SF) offers flexibility for unlimited uses such as a game room, home office, or conversion to apartment/guest house. The beautiful tree-shaded backyard with gardens, swimming pool, and patios provide an ideal space for outdoor entertainment. Located just a few blocks north of U.T, the Aldridge Place neighborhood is a unique pocket of century-old homes surrounding charming Hemphill Park. Residents enjoy the walkability of the area and proximity to nearby shopping, restaurants, and coffee shops. Neighborhood schools include the highly rated Lee Elementary School, Kealing Middle School, and McCallum High School.
