Tucked into one of North Austin’s most convenient and connected neighborhoods, this updated 3 BD, 2 BA, one-story home in Walnut Crossing puts you right next to Balcones District Park and the Walnut Creek trails — a rare blend of city access and natural surroundings. Inside, the open layout flows effortlessly with wood-look LVP flooring throughout the main living, dining and kitchen areas. The living room feels bright and open with vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace and great sightlines. In the kitchen, quartz countertops pair perfectly with the classic subway tile backsplash, shaker cabinets and stainless-steel appliances — modern, but timeless. All three bedrooms are full of natural light, and both bathrooms have been tastefully updated. A bonus highlight is the stunning sunroom (not included in the square footage) featuring, three walls of windows, vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, recessed lighting and skylights. It’s a tranquil retreat that brings the outdoors in for year-round enjoyment. Step outside to a uniquely private backyard that feels like your own hidden retreat. A level, paved area offers plenty of space to lounge or entertain, while stairs lead up to a raised deck tucked among mature trees, giving it a secluded, treehouse-like feel. A gate takes you from the deck to an untouched “wooded” like, area, creating an experience that’s rare in the heart of the city — peaceful, natural, and truly special. Zoned to highly regarded Anderson High School and just minutes from The Domain, The Arboretum, Q2 Stadium, and Austin’s biggest tech employers, this home checks all the right boxes for location. With downtown just 12 miles away and easy access to 183, Mopac, and SH-45, you’re never far from anything — whether it’s hiking trails, dinner out, or the next big concert. Walnut Crossing is known for its walkable streets, welcoming neighbors and community spirit — a quiet pocket of Austin that still keeps you close to the action. Buyer to verify details.
