About This Home
This East Austin home just feels right. The wide front porch begs for a cold drink, a good breeze, and a little people-watching. Step inside and you’ll find a bright, open layout with easy-care tile and laminate floors throughout. The living area is relaxed yet modern, with recessed lighting and space to entertain or kick back after a long day.
The remodeled kitchen makes cooking a pleasure with wood cabinets, granite counters, stainless appliances, and a bar that flows right into the large dining room—perfect for dinner parties or lazy Sunday brunches. The private primary suite features a walk-in closet and direct access to the backyard, while three additional bedrooms double as home office, gym, or creative space.
And because Texas summers mean business, the brand-new 2024 AC keeps things cool without a second thought. The roof was replaced in 2025 as well. Easily create that dream back yard oasis with existing patio & string lights just perfect for entertaining. This space has been a chicken run, a fire pit hangout, and could easily become home to a cowboy pool. It’s the kind of backyard that’s ready for whatever you’ve got planned.
The neighborhood seals the deal. Just a short stroll to Springdale Green, Springdale General, and Springdale Station, you’ll have art studios, coffee shops, breweries, and local shopping right at your fingertips. Boggy Creek and Walnut Creek trails bring nature into the mix, and downtown Austin and UT are just minutes away.
Zoned SF3, the lot also allows for an additional dwelling—offering options to build, invest, or just enjoy having extra space in the heart of East Austin. With its mix of modern updates, flexible layout, and unbeatable location, this home is your invitation to live boldly in one of Austin’s most dynamic neighborhoods.
Seller will consider a rate buy-down or closing cost assistance with a reasonable offer.
