About this home

An incredibly well-kept 3-bedroom, 1-bath home in one of South Austin’s most convenient locations. Built in 1969 and lovingly maintained, this 1,192-square-foot house offers generously proportioned rooms and a layout that’s ready to move into as-is or make your own.
Outside, the fenced front yard adds bonus usable space, great for kids, pets, or just extra room to spread out, and a cowboy pool in the back makes the most of Austin summers. Minutes from South Congress, South Lamar, and downtown, with easy access to the city’s best restaurants and shops.
A rare opportunity to own a piece of South Austin at this price point, ideal for a first-time buyer or an investor looking to add to a strong rental corridor.
