About This Home

As of May 2025

The Talisman condos are an icon in South Austin. Perched high above Barton Springs Road and South Lamar behind a gated entrance, you'll find breathtaking views of downtown in a peaceful, smaller community setting. You won't be waiting on any elevators or navigating giant parking garages here. Unit #120 has been updated and well-maintained, with a single owner occupant since 2015. You'll find floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room and bedroom with wooden shutters, a functional electric fireplace, and hand-scraped hardwoods throughout. The spacious floor plan features a generous living room, dining area, large bedroom with room for an additional sitting or working area, and a 1-car private garage. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, a double oven, and quartz counters. There's tons of storage, including a walk-in closet and secondary closet in the bedroom, two pantries in the kitchen, wall-to-wall built-in sideboard in the dining area, ceiling storage in the garage, and a private locked storage room outside. Outside enjoy the sparkling community pool, plenty of unassigned guest parking, a dog park, and serene landscaping.
