Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of real estate in one of Austin’s most celebrated and walkable neighborhoods. Perfectly positioned next to the scenic Arroyo Seco walking path and just minutes from the vibrant Burnet Road corridor, you’ll have iconic local favorites like Top Notch, Fonda San Miguel, The Draught House, Taco Deli, and Pinthouse all within easy reach. Sitting on a generous 7,998 sq ft lot, this property offers both privacy and room for future expansion—within current impervious cover limits. Recent upgrades include a brand-new roof by LOA, complete with a transferable 10-year warranty, giving you peace of mind for years to come. Inside, you’ll find thoughtful, period-inspired updates with modern touches: fresh Citrine Quartz countertops and Spark Series Spanish ceramic matte backsplash add subtle elegance to the kitchen, while Italian porcelain tile with earth-toned marble veining complements the rich wood cabinetry and original hardwood floors throughout. This true two-bedroom layout also includes a separate office flooded with natural light—perfect for working from home or creating a cozy reading nook. Outside, a canvas sunshade cools the expansive back patio, ideal for grilling, entertaining, or enjoying a peaceful evening under the glow of string lights. Whether you’re looking for a charming move-in-ready home or a property with long-term potential, this North Central gem offers it all.
